Granite tables are very nice looking additions to a home, and there are quite a few different kinds to choose from. You can get a granite dining room table or set, granite coffee table, end table or accent table, to name just a few options.
There are many colors of granite tables to choose from as well. It is important to make sure that the style and color you choose matches well with the existing furnishings if you want your new table to be an enhancement to the room’s decor.
You should also be aware of the fact that nearly all granite tables are quite pricey. They cost a lot more than a regular hardwood table would since granite prices are so high. If you want a dining room granite table set, you should be prepared to spend around $800 for one of the cheaper ones or well over $1,000 if you want one of the higher end name brands. If you want something a bit more affordable then you may want to consider a table with a faux granite top. Cramco Mayfair makes a few sets of this nature; the prices vary depending on the size of table and amount of chairs, but you can get a four chair set for only $600. If you choose a granite laminate table, then the prices get even cheaper – you can easily get a six or seven chair set with fairly large table for around $500.
If you just want a coffee table or end table, then there are some very classy options on the market. Naturally, the ones made with real granite as opposed to faux granite or granite laminate are a lot classier but they are pricier. One of the more affordable options are Leick Furniture’s Round Granite Top Side Table that is currently selling for $117 online. The IMAX Broderick Granite Top Bar Table is also quite decorative and you can buy it for only $150.
If you are looking for a granite coffee table, then a few cheaper options are the Bismarck Granite Top Coffee Table and Montibello’s Coffee Table with Granite Top. These sell for $240 and $254, respectively, at online retailer www.coffeetablesgalore.com.
Buying a granite table online is often less costly than buying one from a regular furniture shop, especially if the online retailer offers free shipping. However, it is also harder to tell, just from looking at a snapshot, whether the table you are considering is the right one for your living room or dining room. Take the time to decide what exact style, size and design you are looking for if you decide to buy your granite table from an online retailer.
