What Is an Oval Dining Table?
An oval dining table combines the generous seating capacity of a rectangular table with the conversational flow and safety of rounded edges. The elongated oval shape accommodates more guests along the sides while eliminating sharp corners, making it ideal for families and entertaining in dining rooms where traffic flow matters.

- 86-Inch Oval Surface -- The 86 x 42-inch dimensions provide comfortable seating for eight adults with ample elbow room and space for serving dishes during meals.
- Bold Black Finish -- The darkened acacia finish adds modern sophistication and pairs beautifully with both contemporary and transitional dining chairs.

How Do You Style an Oval Dining Table?
The Povera's sculptural black base pairs beautifully with upholstered dining chairs in neutral linen or leather to soften the bold geometric lines.
