Vintage Dining Room: Dining Tables, Chairs, Sideboards and Display Cabinets with History
The dining room is the room where vintage furniture makes the most sense: A table that has already hosted three generations can easily withstand the fourth. At Hauptstadt Möblerei, you will always find over 1,000 dining room furniture pieces from every era: dining tables made of teak, oak and mahogany, chair sets, sideboards and buffets, display cabinets for dishes, sideboards and highboards, tea carts and bar cabinets. All restored in our Berlin workshop.

Furnishing a dining room: three approaches

Antique: Oak Gründerzeit table, six leather-upholstered chairs, buffet with display cabinet top. Solid and made for rooms with high ceilings. See Antiques.
Mixed: An antique table with modern cantilever chairs, a new walnut table with natural edge with vintage chairs. Our customers' most popular option.
How large does the dining room need to be?
Allow 60 cm of table width per person, 80 cm around the table for the chair, and 40 cm behind it for passing by. A table measuring 160 × 90 cm therefore requires approximately 3.2 × 2.5 m of free space. The dimensions are listed for every piece.

Frequently asked questions about vintage dining rooms
Does everything have to be from the same era?
No. Two eras in one room look more lively than a complete set. What matters more is a shared wood type or color.
Can an old dining table withstand everyday life with children?
Solid wood, yes. Scratches can be sanded down and oiled again.
Can I buy a dining table and chairs together?
Yes, many tables are already displayed with matching chairs in the showroom. Ask about a package price.
What works in a small dining room?
A round or extendable table, armless chairs, and a highboard instead of a sideboard.

Yes. We buy vintage and antique furniture in good condition. Send us photos and a short description through our furniture purchasingpage, and we will get back to you with an offer.
