Keep your entryway or hallway neat, tidy and ready to impress with a beautifully crafted console table.
What is a console table and why should you have one?
Console tables are typically tall, narrow pieces of furniture that generally sit in an entryway or hallway. They provide extra surface space and organization in small areas without obstructing walkways. In a formal entryway reserved for guests, a console table can serve as "room jewelry" creating a focal point immediately upon entering a home. Alternately, in a mudroom or family entryway they can serve as a catchall for mail, keys, wallets, or other necessary on-the-go items. Since an entryway creates your home's first impression for anyone that enters, tidiness and order are key. A console table not only serves as an eye-catching decoration, some offer aid in organization. Besides the extra surface area created by the tabletop, some console tables have features like drawers or shelves to maximize their storage potential. Most are open underneath allowing for larger items to be stowed, like backpacks or boots or even to stash an ottoman out of the way while its not being used.
Console tables are typically 30-36" tall, with a top 12-15" deep on average. Their smaller footprint allows them to be extremely versatile. While typically thought of as entryway or hallway furnishings, console tables can be useful elsewhere in the home as well. It is growing in popularity to place a console table up against the back of your sofa, creating an easily accessible surface, or a convenient location for additional living room lighting.
Console tables are available in several shapes and colors. Find designs fashioned out of wood, metal, a mix of wood and metal, and even more natural materials like wicker or rattan. They can be found typically in a square or rectangle shape, but demi-lunes or half-moons shapes are growing widely in popularity.
