When Experts Need the Perfect Dining Table, This Is the Brand They Turn to

When it comes to styling the space of your dreams, the right Expert can bring a lot to the table—including the table itself.

As a place for gathering and celebrating life’s biggest—and smallest!—moments, your dining table plays a huge role in the design scheme of your home. Whether you’re a frequent dinner party host who dreams up inventive themes or your style errs more on the side of takeout and sweatpants, you need a table that can anchor your space and set a strong foundation for all the other elements that surround it: dining chairs, tableware, stemware, and the like. Thanks to its durable and contemporary, yet enduring designs, Sun at Six is the brand that our Experts turn to when they need the perfect dining table.

The family-run furniture studio uses classical Chinese joinery techniques to produce its elegant yet unstudied pieces. Each solid hardwood design—developed completely in-house, from timber to table—is treated with a natural, proprietary finish made from tree seeds, which emphasizes its gorgeous, natural wood grain and offers stain resistance.

With nods to simple, understated mid-century designs, Sun at Six dining tables offer a timeless appeal that makes them instant heirlooms—exactly what you’d expect from pieces designed to bring loved ones together for both milestone birthdays and everyday breakfasts. Take a look at how our Experts styled these pieces in seven totally different interiors.

Classic Comfort

With a few retro touches—a checkerboard tile, an exposed wood beam ceiling, and dual-tone upholstered bench seating—Another Human evokes a sense of nostalgic comfort in this dining area. Leave it to Sun at Six’s Crest Dining Table, though, to elevate the space and imbue it with just a touch of formality.

Balancing Act

In the case of this dining area by Duett Interiors, Sun at Six’s Arc Dining Table serves as a sleek, pared-back foundation for colorful and eclectic details. Rust-colored velvet chairs, a turquoise banquette, and a modernist-textured gray wall feel harmonious and aligned around the simple design.

Serene Simplicity

A sliver of Calacatta marble is the standout detail of this kitchen by Jenna Barton Interiors—so the formal dining area, separate from the kitchen island, is best styled with subtlety in mind. The Arc Dining Table practically blends into the light-colored floor and keeps the space open and airy, even surrounded by black chairs with rustic signs of age.

Playful Proportions
