The Art of Entertaining: How Many Guests Around Your Table?

Entertaining is an art form—an expression of elegance, generosity, and refinement. In the realm of luxury interiors, the dining table is not merely a piece of furniture: it is the centrepiece of your hospitality, the silent witness to countless shared moments.

Round tables: warmth and symmetry

A round table encourages inclusive conversation and equal interaction. No corners, no head of the table—just fluid conviviality.

Extendable tables: discreet luxury

Designed for both everyday living and grand occasions, extendable tables offer remarkable flexibility.

A 120 cm table can be expanded to 180 cm or more, seating 4 to 8 guests comfortably. Luxurious finishes in marble, solid wood, ceramic or tempered glass ensure that functionality never sacrifices beauty.

Ceramic tabletops are particularly valued for their resistance to scratches, stains, and heat—while delivering modern sophistication.

Comfort and spacing: the measure of refinement

True luxury lies in comfort. Offering each guest at least 60 cm of space, along with sufficient clearance around the table for fluid service, is the hallmark of gracious hospitality.

The right table sets the tone—quietly elegant, deeply welcoming, and unmistakably yours.
