This table is so beautiful! Everyone that has seen it has complimented on how glamorous it looks. It definitely makes the room look bigger and brighter as it reflects off the pictures and vase I have staged in my dining room. I currently have 8 light beige chairs comfortably set at the table and have 4 on standby to scoot in if needed. The table is sturdy, big enough for our family, and elegant at the same time!
