Ariana vs Louis vs Ariel: Which Marble Dining Table Style Suits Your Home?

Choosing a marble dining table is a big decision — it's often the centrepiece of the home for years to come. At Marmo Living, our collections are organised around three signature table styles: Ariana, Louis, and Ariel. Each brings a distinct look and feel to a dining room, so here's how to work out which one fits your space and taste.

The Ariana Collection: Sleek and Contemporary

The Ariana Collection is built for modern homes. Expect clean lines, slim profiles, and a refined, minimalist base — usually in polished chrome or brushed gold — paired with a bookmatched marble top. If your dining room leans towards a contemporary or Scandinavian aesthetic, with plenty of natural light and neutral tones, Ariana tables slot in effortlessly. They also tend to work well in open-plan spaces where the dining area flows into a modern kitchen.

The Louis Collection: Classic and Statement-Making

Named for its nod to traditional French design, the Louis Collection favours richer detailing, sculpted legs, and a more substantial presence. These tables suit homes with classic or transitional interiors — think panelled walls, chandeliers, and warmer colour palettes. A Louis table works as a genuine statement piece, anchoring a formal dining room rather than disappearing into the background.

The Ariel Collection: Soft, Organic Curves

The Ariel Collection sits between the two, offering rounded silhouettes and softer, more organic lines. It's a strong choice if you want the elegance of marble without the sharper geometry of Ariana or the ornate detail of Louis. Ariel tables are particularly popular in homes that mix modern and traditional elements, since the curved forms feel at home in either setting.

How to Decide

A few questions worth asking yourself:

• What's the rest of your furniture like? Match the table's formality to your existing pieces rather than picking it in isolation.
• How many will you seat regularly? Our Dining Tables & Sets range spans compact 4-seaters through to large family sets, across all three styles.
• What chairs will you pair it with? A table style often pairs naturally with certain chair styles — we cover this in our chair style guide.

Whichever direction you choose, every Marmo Living table is cut from genuine natural marble, so no two pieces are ever quite identical. Browse the full range in our Dining Tables & Sets collection to see all three styles side by side.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which marble dining table style is most popular?

Louis and Ariana are our two best-selling styles, roughly evenly split — Louis for classic dining rooms, Ariana for modern, open-plan spaces.

Can I see Ariana, Louis and Ariel tables side by side?

Yes — all three styles sit together in our Dining Tables & Sets collection, filterable by table style.

Are all three styles made from the same marble?

Each style is available across the same range of natural marble finishes — white, grey, black, cream and beige — so the choice between styles is really about shape and detailing, not stone quality.
