• Encourage conversation since everyone faces each other.

• Work beautifully with Rugs to define the dining area.

• Seats the most people, making them ideal for Wiregrass family gatherings.

• Pair with Lighting like chandeliers to center the look.

  
  

Square Dining Tables

• Balance small dining rooms with proportional design.

• Style with Décor & Accessories like pottery or candles for a polished finish.
