The Lewis range: dining tables, chairs and bar stools that match
Lewis is one of the few ranges here that runs from the dining table all the way through to the TV stand. The same chrome frames and bases appear on the dining tables, the chairs, the bar stools and the benches, and then again on the coffee, console, lamp and TV tables — so an island, a dining table and the living room next door can carry one look without you having to piece it together from three different ranges. This guide sets out what the range contains, where the finishes differ, and which table suits which room.
The two halves of Lewis
Lewis divides into two. The pieces named simply Lewis are described with chrome frames and bases. Those prefixed SG- or G- are the gold-framed versions. The chrome half is much the more complete of the two: it is the only one that covers a table, a dining chair and a bar stool, which matters if you want a kitchen island and a dining table to agree with each other.
| Piece | Sizes in the listing | Frame as described |
|---|---|---|
| Lewis Dining Table | 1.2m, 1.5m, 1.8m, 2m | Chrome |
| Lewis Square Dining Table | 1m square | Chrome |
| Lewis Round Table | 1.3m diameter | Chrome |
| Lewis Chair / Lewis 01 Chair | 65 x 52 x 94cm | Chrome legs |
| Lewis Bar Stool / Lewis 01 Bar Stool | 58 x 50 x 98cm | Chrome base |
| Lewis benches | 110cm, 130cm, 160cm | Chrome legs |
| Coffee, console, lamp, TV | See each listing | Chrome |
| SG-Lewis Dining Table | 1.5m, 1.8m, 2m | Gold |
| SG-Lewis Round Table | 1.3m diameter | Gold |
| G-Lewis Chair | 65 x 52 x 94cm | Gold legs |
| SG-Lewis Coffee Table | 120 x 60 x 45cm | Gold |
Note what is missing from the gold side: there is no gold Lewis bar stool. If your scheme runs on gold and you need seating at an island as well as at the table, that is the gap to plan around before you commit.
Picking the table first
Every Lewis dining table stands 75cm high, which is the usual dining height, so the decision is really about footprint. A rough working figure: allow 90cm to 100cm between the edge of the table and the nearest wall or unit, so a chair can be pulled out and sat on without anyone having to shuffle sideways. On the 1.8m table that means a room about 3.6m long before the table starts to feel squeezed.
Kitchens and smaller rooms
The 1m square table takes one chair to a side, which is a tidy four without a long table's run of empty edge. The 1.2m length of the rectangular Lewis is the alternative where the room is narrow rather than small — it is only 80cm deep against the 90cm and 100cm of the longer versions.
Round or rectangular
The 1.3m round table has roughly four metres of edge once you go all the way around it, so six chairs sit comfortably and nobody is at a corner. It suits a squarish room, where a long rectangle would leave awkward gaps at either end. The rectangular table is the better choice against a wall, or where the table has to double as a work surface.
How many Lewis chairs actually fit
A Lewis dining chair is 65cm wide, so count 65cm of table edge per seat and the arithmetic does itself:
- 1.2m x 80cm — two chairs to a side need 130cm, so they will overhang the ends slightly. Fine in practice once they are tucked in; if you want four chairs sitting squarely under the top, look at the 1.5m.
- 1.5m x 90cm — two to a side with room to spare, and one at each end if you need six.
- 1.8m x 90cm — a comfortable six as two a side plus the ends. Three a side would need 195cm and will not go.
- 2m x 100cm — six with space between each chair, or eight at a push with three a side touching.
One thing to allow for with Lewis: the tables are described with four legs at the corners, so chair positions are set by where those legs fall rather than being slid freely along the edge.
The chairs and stools: match the pair, not just the colour
There are two parallel versions of the seating, and the simplest way to keep a set consistent is to choose a lane and stay in it.
- Light Grey or Mink — the Lewis Chair and the Lewis Bar Stool both list those two colourways.
- Dark Grey — that is the Lewis 01 Plush Chair, paired with the Lewis 01 Dark Grey Bar Stool.
The listings are explicit that the Lewis and Lewis 01 bar stools are the same shape and size but not the same material, so do not order one of each and expect them to read as a set. All four share a Chesterfield-style back and the lion knocker detail at the top; the diagonal stitching is described on the two chairs.
Stools at an island
The Lewis stool measures 58 x 50 x 98cm, and that 98cm is the overall height including the back, not the seat height. Worktops and breakfast bars vary, and the overhang you have to tuck a seat under varies more. Measure your counter and the depth of the overhang and send us the figures, and we will tell you whether the stool suits before you order several of them.
Benches instead of chairs
Lewis benches come in 110cm, 130cm and 160cm, at 48cm deep and 50cm high — so 25cm between the bench top and the 75cm tabletop. There are three upholstery choices: the dark grey in all three lengths, the shimmer silver grey in 130cm and 160cm, and the mink at 110cm, listed in Plush Mink and Shiny Mink.
A bench along one side is the trick worth knowing for a tight room: it pushes under the table completely, so the walkway behind it is only needed when somebody is actually sitting down. Pair the 130cm bench with the 1.5m table, or the 160cm with the 1.8m or 2m. The honest caveat is that a backless bench is less comfortable for a long evening, so most people put the bench on the wall side and chairs where guests sit.
Carrying Lewis into the living room
This is where the range earns its keep. The coffee table (120 x 60 x 45cm), lamp table (50 x 50 x 55cm), console table (120 x 40 x 75cm) and TV stand (1.4m or 1.6m wide) all use the same frame language as the dining table. In an open-plan room where you can see the table from the sofa, that continuity does more for the space than any single piece does on its own. The console is also the sensible hallway piece if you want the look to start at the front door, and there are gold alternatives in the SG-Lewis coffee and lamp tables.
Two things to confirm before ordering
First, the tops. Several Lewis listings describe both marble and ceramic surfaces, and the product page does not offer a choice between the two — so if the surface matters to you, whether that is a stone or a marble-effect finish, ask us to confirm what a particular table is supplied with. We would rather answer that question than have you guess.
Second, the finish on two of the gold pieces. The SG-Lewis Console Table and SG-Lewis Lamp Table are described with chrome frames rather than gold, unlike the rest of the SG-Lewis pieces. If you are building a gold scheme, check those two with us specifically.
Seeing it and getting it home
Chrome, velvet and a reflective tabletop are all hard to judge from a photograph, so come and look if you can — the difference between Light Grey and shimmer silver grey in daylight is the sort of thing that decides an order. Delivery is free within 50 miles of our Glasgow store and £50 beyond that.
