I think you could do a simple box valance or roman shades, which would warm it up without affecting your beautiful view.

It's a nice room! I think roman shades would be better because you don't have much room on the sides for the draperies to stack. Do you want matching window coverings on all the openings? The Shade Store has a pretty good selection of shades and draperies.

Painting chairs is hard to do - maybe re-up the seats and use a lighter tablecloth?

You can put a simple sun shade under the valance where needed. I also think you table is fine as is. Just remove the table cloth and reupholster the seats.

Leave the table bare for a cleaner, more modern look. Please don't paint that wood. Since this fabric has a larger design, only use fabric at the windows with a solid, stripe, or small scale pattern. You might also like a woven wood instead which gives texture. You may only want something on the kitchen window where you need it for the sun, and leave the other windows bare. You could even have a roman shade made for the kitchen window in the same fabric as the chairs.

L P I have the same shape and colour of table as yours, to update it a little, I bought online, 2 fabric parsons chairs, mine are in toile, off white with black lettering, I put them at each end of the table, with the original chairs on the sides. I like the look and it did imo update it. It took some searching online to get the proper height of back, cause my original chairs have a higher back. I only put on a tablecloth at mealtimes otherwise table is bare with a centerpiece. Your home is lovely, love the chandelier above your table! I would only add a shade above your kitchen window for the sun problem, no to a cloth valence, they are passe imo.
