A tea table set is a seating decision before it is a table decision

Buyers searching for a chinese tea table set usually need one complete answer: which table shape, how many stools or armchairs, and how much floor the grouping needs. The table itself is the easy part — solid Siamese rosewood tea tables on this site come in round (90 cm diameter), square (85 x 85 cm with stone inlay) and rectangular formats (80 x 50 cm to 90 x 45 cm). What separates a usable set from an awkward one is the space around the table and how people enter and leave it.

Buyer pain point: tearoom and hospitality buyers order a table and stools separately, then discover the stool height does not tuck under the apron, or the grouping blocks the service path. Solution: source the table and seating from the same factory, matched to a stated clear-space rule, so heights and footprints are designed together.

Set configuration by space type

SpaceRecommended groupingClear space to plan
Formal tea roomRound or square table, 4 stools or armchairs, one server side positionAllow 60 cm from table edge to seat front and 90 cm behind each seat for entry
Boutique tea caféTwo to three smaller tables, 2 seats each, along a wall run60 cm between table edges for server passage; keep 110 cm for main aisles
Private lounge cornerRectangular tea table (80 x 50 cm) with 2 armchairs facing40-45 cm table-to-seat distance so cups are reachable without leaning

What the site's own tea table range supports

The tea table range on this site is built in solid Siamese rosewood (Dalbergia cochinchinensis) with mortise-and-tenon joinery and six-coat raw lacquer finishes. The square tea table with inlaid stone top suits tearooms that want a heat-tolerant work surface; the round table with openwork cloud apron seats four evenly; the bamboo-carved and cloud-apron rectangular tables fit lounge corners where a lower visual profile matters. The folding stool in the seating range is tested to a 100 kg / 24-hour static load and tucks under the 38 cm table height — a practical check for set ordering.

Confirm before ordering a set

  • Total seated count and whether stools or carved armchairs are wanted; armchairs add roughly 15 cm of width per seat.
  • Whether the stone-inlaid top is required for hot-water service, or the lacquer top is sufficient.
  • Packed volumes per piece for container planning; sets ship more efficiently when ordered together.
  • FSC chain-of-custody and CITES export documentation scope for the destination market.

Select the space type in the tool above, then send the floor dimensions and seat count in the enquiry form; the response will map the requirement to specific table and seating pieces.
