The history of dining tables in our lives is not very old. First, let’s take a brief look at how dining tables have come to occupy their current place in our lives, and then let’s explore the elegant, natural, and simple models of wooden dining tables that have rapidly become fashionable.
A Brief History of Tables Before Wooden Models
When all available findings are gathered, it can be concluded that the first tables were made and used by the Egyptians. These tables were crafted from wood, metal, or stone surfaces to protect items from crawling insects, harmful pests, and accumulated dust by keeping them elevated.
The Greeks and Romans used tables primarily for dining. They developed models made of bronze or silver alloys, marble, metal, or wood that were quite similar to the coffee tables we use today. Dining tables, considered as specialized tools for production and use, first began to be used in the 16th century.
However, in Turkish society, which was accustomed to sitting on the floor and dining at ground level, the use of tables first emerged in the 19th century.
Now, for health and practicality, dining tables and dining room designs are frequently preferred. Among the thousands of different table models, wooden tables stand out in particular.
Now, let’s take a more detailed journey together to explore the wooden table models developed by LODA furniture's master designers, who have taken into account different preferences with exquisite taste.
