Formica Table Top For Sale on 1stDibs
Find many varieties of an authentic formica table top available at 1stDibs. Frequently made of laminate, formica and metal, every formica table top was constructed with great care.

A formica table top made by Mid-Century Modern designers — as well as those associated with Scandinavian Modern — is very popular. Cees Braakman, Charles and Ray Eames and Herman Miller each produced at least one beautiful formica table top that is worth considering.
How Much is a Formica Table Top?

Finding the Right Tables for You
The right vintage, new or antique tables can help make any space in your home stand out.
Over the years, the variety of tables available to us, as well as our specific needs for said tables, has broadened. Today, with all manner of these must-have furnishings differing in shape, material and style, any dining room table can shine just as brightly as the guests who gather around it.
Remember, when shopping for a dining table, it must fit your dining area, and you need to account for space around the table too — think outside the box, as an oval dining table may work for tighter spaces. Alternatively, if you’ve got the room, a Regency-style dining table can elevate any formal occasion at mealtime.
Innovative furniture makers and designers have also redefined what a table can be. Whether it’s an unconventional Ping-Pong table, a brass side table to display your treasured collectibles or a Louis Vuitton steamer trunk to add an air of nostalgia to your loft, your table can say a lot about you.
The visionary work of French designer Xavier Lavergne, for example, includes tables that draw on the forms of celestial bodies as often as they do aquatic creatures or fossils. Elsewhere, Italian architect Gae Aulenti, who looked to Roman architecture in crafting her stately Jumbo coffee table, created clever glass-topped mobile coffee tables that move on bicycle tires or sculpted wood wheels for Fontana Arte.
Coffee and cocktail tables can serve as a room’s centerpiece with attention-grabbing details and colors. Glass varieties will keep your hardwood flooring and dazzling area rugs on display, while a marble or stone coffee table in a modern interior can showcase your prized art books and decorative objects. A unique vintage desk or writing table can bring sophistication and even a bit of spice to your work life.
No matter your desired form or function, a quality table for your living space is a sound investment. On 1stDibs, browse a collection of vintage, new and antique bedside tables, mid-century end tables and more .

- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 13, 2024The top of a table is called a tabletop. Makers craft tabletops out of a variety of materials, including wood, metal, glass, concrete, marble, ceramic and quartz. In most cases, the tabletop rests on a component called the frieze, skirt or apron, which connects to the table legs. Find a diverse assortment of antique, vintage and contemporary tables on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Solid wood has largely been hailed as one of the most durable table tops, specifically oak and birch. Oak has an open grain and shows the least wear and tear. You can shop a selection of wood tables from some of the world’s sellers on 1stDibs.
- What is a plank top table?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertOctober 12, 2021The plank top table is a modern interpretation of the traditional harvest table.

Low tables that were initially used as tea or coffee tables have been around since at least the mid- to late-1800s.

- 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Yes, you should put glass on top of your dining table to minimize scratches and wear. Glass allows you to see the beauty of the wood while protecting it from everyday wear.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 5, 2021The best thickness for a glass table top depends on usage. If the glass is used just as a cover, then ¼-inch thick glass is likely good enough. If the glass will be used is as a table surface, then you should choose the thickness of the glass according to the size of the table. If the glass used is supporting heavy items, or its size is more than 24 inches, then choose glass that is thicker than ¼ inch. Thicker glass will feel and look more substantial, but thicker glass becomes heavier with increasing size. On 1stDibs, find antique and vintage glass-top dining room tables, glass-top coffee tables, side tables and more.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Yes, epoxy resin is good for finishing table tops. It is a pourable, self-leveling resin perfect for preserving table tops, bar tops and counters. On 1stDibs, you can find vintage and contemporary resin-topped furniture from top sellers around the world.
