I am looking to buy a mid-century modern dining room table.?

We recently purchased a 1950s ranch home. We are in the process of decorating and we are trying to go with an “atomic ranch” style decor. Can anyone point me in the direction of any mid-centry modern websites that might carry a dining set that is from this era? We have a few that we really like and obviously we troll the local shops and craigslistings, but just in case there’s something we missed any help would be much appreciated. thanks!
