Gold brings the glam, regardless of if you’re accessorising with it in places or going all-out with striking furniture pieces.
A key feature of the contemporary luxe design trend, gold works in most spaces, especially when it comes to gold dining tables.
How to choose the right gold dining table for your home
Going gold is quite a bold interior design move however, it’s one that can really pay off.
Why have just any old dining table when it can literally shine with elements of gold?
If this is the route you’ve decided to go down, here are some key considerations to think about:
1. How gold do you want your table to be?
Modern gold dining tables these days aren’t gold all over, but incorporate gold effect features, such as the legs and edging.
You may want to find a design that has more gold than others, or you may want to play it a bit safer by choosing a design that’s 80% other material and 20% gold, it’s up to you.
2. Do you want to make a statement with your gold table?
If you do, an all-old gold base is just what you need. Not only will the base catch the eye because of the elaborate design, you’ve then got the opulence of the gold effect to admire too. Win-win.
3. How do you want to dress your gold dining table?
Gold dining tables look stunning all on their own, but that doesn’t mean you can’t add to them so they blend with your décor and look like they were made just for your dining room.
Gold works particularly well with white, black and light grey, while gold and marble, is a design pairing made in heaven. Whatever you do, the beauty of the gold will shine through.
4. How do you intend to use your gold table?
I'm asking this because some gold tables are so stunning, they almost look too amazing to be used on an everyday basis for dining.
Some tables can actually be used as console tables, dressing tables or display tables.
We love a gold dining table and can’t think of anything more impressive for dining rooms, just make sure you’re clear on if you see it as a functional or decorative piece.
Also bear in mind that if you put your table in direct sunlight, it may tarnish the gold over time.
5. How are you going to look after your gold table?
Believe it or not, most modern gold tables aren’t high maintenance, you clean them in the same way you’d clean most tables.
However, you do want to preserve the gold effect and make sure it stays nice and shiny, so always use detergent, warm water and a soft cloth to wipe it down.
