mzs300 Thanks. Size is not an issue for me. It will be way bigger than I need. How's the quality? And in person does it have it have that just right balance of modern, but classic? In the pictures it has just the look I'm going for.
ron1118 Whether it strikes the right balance is subjective. It suits our room and house, and receives compliments whenever anyone sees it for the first time. I will say the quality is a bit disappointing, it stains very easily. Make sure you clean up spills right away and that you only clean it with non abrasive cleaners and cloths. Someone spilled wine at our first dinner party and it soaked through the placemat. I didn't notice until the morning and it caused a discoloration in the wood that still mocks me.
Similar design to the ideas discussed. Mixed chairs, table design (in this case oval), color of hardwood floor. Also metal tips on table legs we discussed for the chairs (originally white).
