This page covers a classic dining room furnished with carved cherry and leather. The photographs below show classic dining tables and chairs for reference. The text explains how a barrel-top table, leather chairs and a large sideboard work as one set, with sizes and finishes for each.

Carved cherry and leather at the table

The table and chairs set the tone of a classic dining room, so start with carving and upholstery. The Opera Carved Barrel-Top Table with Two 50 cm Leaves by Francesco Pasi has carving finished by hand, in Luxury White, Cream, Hazelnut or Retro Walnut, or in a 100 Gloss finish. The Gran Guardia Oval Dining Chair by Francesco Pasi is carved entirely by hand by master craftsmen in solid cherry and upholstered in leather. For a different shape, see an oval dining table.

A sideboard with seven drawers

The Gran Guardia Large Sideboard by Francesco Pasi has two doors and seven drawers, enough to keep linen, cutlery and serving pieces in one place. Doors and drawers are solid wood, 34 mm, under a 25 mm cherry top, and decoration comes in gold leaf or silver leaf. If leather is not right for your room, compare our upholstered dining chairs in fabric.

Sizes to plan the room

Plan the room from the table outwards. Closed, the Opera table measures H 79 x W 220 x D 120 cm, and its two 50 cm leaves add length when guests arrive. Each Gran Guardia oval chair is 53 cm wide and 56 cm deep, and the sideboard needs 205 cm of wall, 56 cm of depth and 108 cm of height. Leave space in front of it to open the doors and drawers.
