Side Tables

Side Tables That Actually Matter

Honestly, I never thought much about side tables until I got one that was just... wrong. Too tall for the couch, too flimsy for anything heavy, and it looked like it belonged in someone else's house. That's when I realized these little pieces can make or break a room.

When you find the right side table, everything clicks. Your morning coffee has a home. That stack of magazines looks intentional instead of messy. Maybe you even find yourself using the room more—funny how that works.

We've been collecting side tables from brands like Tom Dixon, Ferm Living, Audo Copenhagen, Fredericia, Skagerak (they're part of Fritz Hansen now), and Gubi. Not because they're trendy, but because they solve real problems while looking good doing it.

Materials That Don't Give Up

These aren't the kind of tables that wobble after six months. Tom Dixon's pieces feel substantial—like they could double as modern art. The Scandinavian designs from Ferm Living are deceptively simple; you don't notice the craftsmanship until you run your hand along the edge or see how the wood meets the metal.

We're talking solid wood that gets better with age, metals that don't scratch if you look at them wrong, and glass that's actually practical. I appreciate furniture that doesn't make me nervous about living my life around it.

Different Rooms, Different Needs

Every space has its own personality and requirements. Some of our customers live in studio apartments where every square foot counts—Audo Copenhagen's sleek designs work beautifully there. Others have larger homes and want something that makes a statement; that's where Gubi really shines.

Then there are folks who want to extend their living space outdoors. Skagerak's weather-resistant pieces mean you don't have to compromise on style just because it's going on a patio. I've seen their Georg side table look equally at home next to a couch or a poolside lounge chair.

Why These Brands

I could stock cheaper options, but I'd rather sleep well at night knowing people are getting pieces that'll last. Fredericia has been around since 1911—they know what they're doing. When you buy from Ferm Living, you're not just getting furniture; you're getting decades of Danish design expertise.

Call me sentimental, but I like the idea of selling tables that might outlive us all.

The Green Factor

It's nice that brands like Skagerak and Ferm Living take environmental responsibility seriously. Not in a marketing-heavy way, but through actual changes in how they source materials and manufacture pieces. When you're investing in furniture, it feels good to support companies that think beyond just making a sale.

Building a Whole Look

The thing about good design is how pieces work together. Once you have a side table you love, you start seeing how it relates to your sofa, your rug, your lighting. We carry all those things because creating a cohesive space shouldn't require shopping five different stores.
