How to Choose a Statement Garden Table for Your Patio

If you want to transform your patio into a stylish and inviting outdoor space, making the centrepiece a statement table is a great way to immediately elevate the look and feel of your garden.  

A teak dining table not only provides a place for dining and socialising but also serves as the heart of your outdoor area. Whether you're hosting family meals, casual get-togethers, or simply enjoying a quiet moment outdoors, by choosing the right garden table, you can elevate the entire space. In this blog, we’ll take you through the top 3 considerations when selecting the perfect teak garden furniture here at Luxus Home & Garden for your patio.  

1. Material Matters 

The material of your garden table plays a crucial role in both its aesthetic appeal and its longevity. Some common garden table materials include: 

• Wood: 
  While other woods like oak and mahogany are popular choices, our teak wood furniture is unparalleled for outdoor use. Teak’s natural oils protect it from the elements, making it highly resistant to water, sun, and pests. This ensures your teak dining set will maintain its beauty for years without frequent maintenance. 
• Metal:
  While metal tables offer a modern look and are generally durable, they can lack the warmth and elegance of a teak table.  
• Stone or concrete: 
  Stone tables are durable but heavy and prone to cracking, making them less ideal for spaces where flexibility is key. 
• Plastic or resin: 
  These materials are less durable and can fade over time, providing a less luxurious outdoor experience.  

2. Size and Shape 

Considering the size and shape of your garden table are essential to make sure it compliments the layout of your patio and doesn’t make it feel too cramped. Here are some things to consider: 

• Size:  
  Make sure your teak dining table fits comfortably within your patio’s space. Measure the area carefully to allow for enough room around the table for movement and seating. For larger gatherings, our teak extendable dining table is ideal, offering flexibility without compromising on the experience. 
• Shape: 
  The shape of the table can influence the flow of your patio. Rectangular tables are great for larger, more formal spaces, while round or square tables work well in cosier settings. If you’re looking for a more compact option, the Santorini Table is a perfect choice for smaller spaces or as a side table, offering both style and functionality.  

3. Style and Design  

The design of your statement garden table should reflect your personal style and preferences while complimenting the overall aesthetic of your patio. Some questions you should ask yourself include: 

• Do I want a contemporary or traditional table? 
  Whether you’re drawn to the timeless charm of traditional tables like our Lutyens Coffee Table or prefer the clean, understated lines of more contemporary-style tables, we’ll help you find the perfect piece to suit your outdoor style. 
• What atmosphere do you want to create? 
  The table you choose should set the tone for the kind of gatherings you want to enjoy. Do you envision relaxing family dinners on a larger teak garden dining table, or are you simply looking for a statement side table like our Teak Fixed Square Table? Whether it's a modern, minimalistic vibe or a warm, traditional feel, our teak tables offer the perfect balance of elegance, functionality, and timeless design. 
• Does it complement other furniture and decor? 
  Consider how your new teak garden table will sit alongside your existing garden furniture and other pieces in your outdoor space. The key is harmony - choosing a table that not only matches but enhances your other furniture and decor.
