Eileen Gray Stainless Steel Accent Table

There's a reason this remains one of the great designs of the 20th century almost 100 years later -- it's beautiful and incredibly versatile. I use it as a TV-dinner table, to watch DVDs on my laptop in my favorite chair, and as a nice complement to the leather Le Corbusier sofa that I also bought on here. You can move it at will, it's totally transparent, and the adjustable heighth is fantastic. For small modern lofts like mine, it's perfect as a side piece that can go anywhere. It also looks great with the moveable Alvar Aalto stools that I use as a coffee table as well as extra seating. Many people talk about how difficult it is to assemble with no instructions, so I would suggest printing out a copy of the product photo as a reference to help. It took me more time to unpack it than to assemble it. Be careful with the chrome and with the glass top; you have to tilt it to get it to fit properly. There are several versions of this table on the internet for less than this one, but this looks as close to the original [which I have seen at the design museum in Paris] as I have come across. I predict your friends and neighbors will ask you where you got this. Don't tell them what you paid! It's gorgeous and looks like it was designed yesterday -- as all great furniture does.

This table is an excellent deal for the price. I am furnishing a mid-century home for a vacation rental. It arrived intact and took 5 minutes to put together. I have surprised several people who have commented on the table that the source is Overstock and the price point.

This table was shipped very fast and it looks great. The only problem is that the glass top which has a hole was chipped on the edges of that hole. Since there is a plastic ring that should protect it from damage it almost covers it and that is why I didn't complain - it is not so much visible unless you really know what to look for. Everything else is excellent. Table is looking great.

This end table was perfect to go between two new leather chairs, helping to give a mid-century feel to my living room. Be careful in putting the glass top in, it's tricky and we ended up putting a small scratch in ours.
