Dining furniture is among the most elegant to be found in any home. Features like stylish design, mullioned glass doors, eye-catching hardware and lovingly finished wood panels conjure a sense of elegance and comfort. But with so many dining room options available, Choosing the Perfect Dining Furnishing can be a daunting task. The guidelines below should help make the selection process easier and more fun.

The classic Trestle Mission Dining Set boasts a selection of matching dining furnishings to compliment any home.
Choosing a Dining Room Table and Chairs
The first thing you need to do when shopping for a dining table and chairs is to determine whether you want a dining table set. Or whether you wish to select a dining table and then choose chairs to match. Brandenberry Amish Furniture has a number of dining table sets, including the Trestle Mission Dining Set shown.
As you begin your search for a dining table, you first need to determine which type of dining table you want. Brandenberrry offers three types of dining tables: pedestal, trestle and leg tables. Pedestal tables usually have one or more supports (such as hefty posts) toward the middle of the table. And these tables have no feet on the perimeter. So pedestal tables command attention while allowing you to squeeze more people around the table.
With the weight of the table supported by two trestles, trestle tables are stately in appearance. Plus, they’re practical. That’s because their design makes them easy to seat several guests with no table legs in the way. The most popular type of dining table, leg tables feature a leg at each corner of the table.
Brandenberry carries at least 200 types of chairs. They come in a variety of sizes and styles, included upholstered and arm chairs. So you can easily find chairs to complement the dining table.
Choosing a Hutch and Sideboard
The fun continues as you check out the hutches, sideboards/servers as well as cabinets. A few things to look for with each piece of furniture will make the selection easier. You can choose an ‘open’ or ‘closed’ hutch. Open hutches have a countertop below the top cabinets. While closed hutches have glass cabinets on top with no countertop space. Plus, you can choose a traditional hutch or a corner hutch.
Dining room furniture shoppers might wish to look for some upscale features on hutches. They include glass shelves, can lights and light-blocking trim around the doors.
When choosing a sideboard, you might wish to look for one with glass doors or wood panel doors. Glass doors are an ideal choice if you want to show off your dinnerware or keepsakes inside the unit. Also, some sideboards come with an integrated wine rack. And others have a mirror and plate rack, plus a stemware holder on top.
Choosing Cabinets
Brandenberry offers a plethora of kitchen cabinets. Of course, you can choose from a large assortment of pantries. But other choices include wine cabinets, curio cabinets, pie safe cabinets and jelly cabinets. Plus leaf storage cabinets for storing unused leaves from dining tables.
