Kitchen Island Tables For Sale on 1stDibs
An assortment of kitchen island tables is available at 1stDibs. Each of these unique kitchen island tables was constructed with extraordinary care, often using wood, metal and stainless steel. Find 82 antique and vintage kitchen island tables at 1stDibs now, or shop our selection of 22 modern versions for a more contemporary example of this long-cherished furniture. Kitchen island tables have been produced for many years, with earlier versions available from the 18th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 21st Century. Kitchen island tables are generally popular furniture pieces, but Industrial and Mid-Century Modern styles are often sought at 1stDibs. Large kitchen island tables can prove too imposing for some spaces, so the smaller kitchen island tables available at 1stDibs — each spanning 23.5 inches in width — may make for a better choice. Kitchen island tables have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Sturdi Bilt are consistently popular.
How Much are Kitchen Island Tables?
Prices for kitchen island tables can differ depending upon size, time period and other attributes — at 1stDibs, kitchen island tables begin at $495 and can go as high as $38,500, while the average can fetch as much as $5,400.
Finding the Right Industrial And Work Tables for You
From drafting tables to preparation tables to kitchen islands and more, the collection of antique and vintage industrial tables and work tables on 1stDibs features a wide range of robust furnishings that fit seamlessly into modern interiors.
Work tables, just like most tables, have evolved considerably over the years.
More than 1,000 years before iconic American furniture brand Herman Miller would help shape the way we work — and later, how we live at home — monks who lived and worked in medieval-era monasteries stood at what you might call crude writing desks, translating religious texts and copying them by hand.
While those who practiced the art of handwritten letters definitely needed a suitable writing desk, the world wouldn’t see proper roll-top desks and the like until the 19th century. Owing to the work of architects such as Antoni Gaudí, these monastery “desks” were essentially work tables. (Chairs, much less actual desk chairs, weren’t a part of the workspace until the Renaissance.) It was a far cry from the cozy home office that affords many of us the opportunity to work remotely today.
Near the end of the 18th century, the Industrial Revolution brought with it the founding of mills and factories, and hand production methods gave way to machinery and mass production. Factory workers needed sturdy industrial tables to perform tasks that required precision and to support the manufacturing industry. Spare work tables — durable and easy to clean — were constructed of metal and wood and became essential on assembly lines and in packing facilities. Today, industrial-style furniture celebrates the past even as it suggests vigor, productivity and brawn.
Aside from how well antique and vintage industrial tables and work tables will fit in your industrial-style interior — think raw brick walls, exposed steel beams and oak floors — these furnishings have practical uses. They’re a must-have item for a number of creative endeavors: They’re an ideal food-prep surface in your kitchen or an efficient work surface for any kind of hands-on workshop or painting and drawing studio. With some creativity, you can turn a vintage wood industrial table or work table into a desk, dining room table or coffee table.
At 1stDibs, we love the industrial-style furniture trend, and here you can find a wide range of antique and vintage industrial tables and work tables as well as other furnishings that will look wonderful in your heavenly loft space.
Questions About Kitchen Island Tables
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A butcher block is a heavy-duty chopping block often made of hardwood that’s designed for cutting or food preparation. A butcher block can be used as a kitchen island, or it can be incorporated into a kitchen island as the top or attached to the side of an island. Find a collection of vintage and modern butcher blocks on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023A counter-height stool is generally good for placing in front of a kitchen island. Most have seat heights of 24 to 27 inches, which works well with standard 36-inch-high kitchen counters. Generally, the stool seat should be around nine to 11 inches from the bottom of the counter. On 1stDibs, find a collection of counter-height stools.
- What is a kitchen table?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022A kitchen table is a table used for serving and eating food. Like dining tables, they usually accommodate a number of people and stand on tall legs. The main difference between the two types of furniture is that the dining table is historically more formal. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of antique and vintage kitchen tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 24, 2024To tell if a kitchen table is antique, look under the table and on the legs for a maker's mark. It may be carved, branded or stamped onto the surface or appear on a paper or metal label. Using the marking, you can consult trusted online resources to learn about the maker and view catalogues of their pieces, searching for tables similar to yours. If your kitchen table was produced at least 100 years ago, it is an antique. Keep in mind that not all antique furnishings have maker's markings. In the event that you're unable to locate a mark, a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer can evaluate your piece for you. On 1stDibs, explore a diverse assortment of tables.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 19, 2021A good color to paint on the kitchen table is a matter of personal choice. Most of the preferred colors are brown, black, green, white, or blue. These hues give a calm shade to the kitchen and can coordinate well with the flooring and style of decor in the kitchen. Shop a range of antique and vintage kitchen tables on 1stDibs.
