My table is 45 by 64 without leaves.....seats 6 easily and 8 if extra show up at the last minute. It has 2 15 or 16 inch leaves making it seat 10. My dining room is 12 by 12 but there is an arch into the living room so it appears open. also have a very large chest that stores dishes, a 42 by 45 drop leaf table in the corner with both leaves down, used as a server with one leaf flipped up, a very small corner cupboard and a small 4 drawer chest used for linens.... It's not crowded....except when the table is opened and I dig up 4 extra chairs from another room. I think rectangular tables are best for small rooms.....with a large round table, there is a huge area that is unuseable. People tend to use the 14 or 15 inches around the edges of a table....and the center is for flower arrangements, candles and condiments.

I've have a table similar to yours in my foyer. Originally, I had a smaller lamp and used one book to give it a bit of height. A taller orchid was used on the other end of table and a small trio of carved Asian men between. I only use one piece above the table (a mirror). I think the two pieces of artwork dwarf your table. Can you hang one over the table and the other close by? I also use Joann's trick, pulling the extra cord behind the table, but use the wide blue painters tape instead of duct tape (gummy residue). The trick is to have the table, accessories and artwork weighted correctly visually. Here is a post about my foyer rug, you can see the table with old lamp and new (not the greatest pictures, but you can see what I mean) Here is a link that might be useful: foyer

Thank you for the mockup! That actually helps quite a bit...as well as perusing Houzz and Zillow Digs. I have realized that this set may be solid wood and a decent deal, but I think I would prefer something else. I actually find myself drawn to round table, which likely wouldn't fit my rectangular room, but that is another topic altogether! A piece of glass (which I can get in any size and shape I choose), a rug, and focus on accessories will likely do a lot more for the room than a "nice" table set that doesn't really suit me. Thanks for all the feedback.

I have an 18 inch cabinet stacked over a 33 inch with 5 inch crown. Our ceilings are just shy of 9 feet. Here is a photo of the boxes installed. Hopefully the doors will be going in tomorrow. I am a bit OCD on having things match up, so I personally wouldn't choose to have muntins in a single cabinet. Maybe consider doing the entire 36 inch cabinet in glass? I am too messy to do that, but in other's kitchens when used as a focal point it can look nice to break up the wall of wood. I tend to agree with the previous posters that a 13 inch may be too small. Once you add the door frames, the amount of glass showing will be tiny.
