What Is Sintered Stone? The Modern Dining Table Material Explained

Insights That Save You Time and Money

Buying furniture is one of the more consequential decisions for a home, and sintered stone is a material a lot of buyers hear about without quite understanding. At Mega Home Furnishing, we have helped thousands of Singapore families furnish their homes, and in this article we explain what it actually is.

Getting the Dimensions Right

Allow 60cm per person along the table edge, and 80 to 100cm between the table edge and the nearest wall for chairs to move freely. For a 4-room BTO, a 4 to 6 seater table is usually the practical size.

Pedestal base tables also make it easier to tuck chairs in fully compared to four leg designs, helpful in a tighter dining area.

Table Shape Matters

• Rectangular: most versatile, maximises seating, sits against a wall well. Best for narrow HDB dining areas.
• Round: no sharp corners, a more intimate dinner, suits square rooms.
• Oval: generous surface with a softer visual line.
• Extendable: compact daily, expands for a bigger gathering.

At Mega Home Furnishing, we carry every shape to suit any Singapore layout.

Chair and Table Pairing

Standard table height is 73 to 76cm, with seat height around 43 to 48cm. That pairing keeps posture comfortable through long meals, and armless chairs tuck under more completely in a tight spot.
