This is a beautiful table. I must admit, I didn’t take the time to consider how high it stands prior to purchasing it. Its really high, especially for a 5’6 guy. I already owned bar chairs. When I sit in the bar chairs the table nearly comes up to my chest. Its perfect height for standing next to and eating a snack. Eating meals took an adjustment period. That’s my fault for not planning properly. All is good now. Its a beautiful table, has a gorgeous design, and looks great in my open floorplan dining area.
