Quality Hardwood Options for Small Dining Sets
A solid wood dining table set for 4 people by the Amish furniture makers at Dutch Craft Furniture will last for many years. Choose your favorite American hardwood type for any small table set. Wood options include Red and White Oak, Maple, Cherry, Hickory, Elm and Walnut wood. Each wood type is strong and durable, an excellent material for quality dining furniture.
As you browse our extensive gallery of dining sets for 4, notice the characteristics unique to each wood type. From the classic, country style of Red Oak to the formality of dark stained Cherry wood, find the perfect look for your dining space. Let's explore some of the natural wood characteristics.
Small Amish Oak dining sets for 4 people are well-known Amish furniture style. Typically featuring Red Oak wood, these tables often have blonde stains like Honey or Fruitwood. Popular dark stain colors like Michael's Cherry or Asbury Brown create contrast to light wood floors.
Red Oak wood is the most affordable hardwood available for Amish furniture and rates at 1290 on the Janka scale. The prominent grain texture will hide small scratches and knicks that may occur over time, keeping the table looking good. We feature Red Oak in the Lakeland Dining Set in both S-2 and Asbury Brown.
White Oak is a bit harder than Red Oak, 1360 on the Janka scale. The specialty cut of White Oak lumber including quarter sawn and rift sawn wood creates a higher price tag than Red Oak. Small Mission and craftsman table sets showcase the quarter sawn White Oak beautifully. Rift sawn White Oak wood is a favorite option for mid-century modern dining sets for 4 people.
Cherry and Maple wood have a smooth, even grain texture completely different from Oak. The rich depth of Cherry wood is ideally suited to medium dark stains like Asbury, Michael's Cherry and Golden Brown. Cherry wood has a natural redness to the wood that adds a warm undertone to the final color.
Maple is a popular option for small dining sets in light gray and blonde wood tones. The subtle wood grain creates minimal color variation. Most small black or white table bases feature Maple wood for a smooth painted finish. Light stain colors like Willowbend, Antique Slate and Cocoa Light brighten up a dark kitchen,
Walnut wood typically features a clear finish, no wood stain applied. The natural beauty of solid Walnut wood has an organic modern style that blends in many homes. We feature the Lakeland Walnut Dining Table Set for 4 with an extendable bench for even greater flexibility.
Hickory wood is perfect for a rustic small wooden dining set. The durable hardwood ranks at 1820 on the Janka scale. This makes it the hardest wood option available for Amish furniture and perfect for a hardworking kitchen table. The natural color and grain variation of Hickory wood is stunning in light stains like Willowbend and Cocoa Light.
The finish on all small Amish dining table sets is a catalyzed conversion varnish. This durable finish is waterproof, heat resistant to 220 degrees and UV resistant to fading. Care and maintenance is easy, no wood conditioners or polishes required. Simply keep your furniture indoors and clean regularly with a mild soap and water to prevent dust buildup.
