Rustic Coffee, Console, Sofa & End Tables

Rustic coffee tables sit at the center of your living room for a reason -- these low-profile rectangular, circular, or oval tables make the ideal place to stow centrally located items and place decorative focal points, including flower arrangements and candy bowls. Situated in front of your sofa, these tables provide a handy place to put down beverages while entertaining or place a tray of appetizers within easy reach of everyone in the room. Many have lower shelves that provide handy display space for books and magazines, and some have one or more drawers for concealed storage. Rustic designs span the decorative gamut, with some having dual wood and metal builds and corresponding distressed and black finishes for a lodge-style look, simple yet elegant hatched accents for farmhouse-fresh appeal, or even ornate columns or turned legs for a vintage appearance.

Rustic console tables boast an array of stylish finishes, often incorporating a deliberately distressed design that makes them an excellent fit for antique-style halls or entryways. Most have streamlined designs that let them fit flush against your wall for a discreet yet functional accent, and many have both shelves and drawers to extend your storage space. X-base options make a nice choice for your foyer, giving you space to stow your keys and small out-the-door items for easy access, while models with door-covered cabinets pair up nicely in hallways, giving you room to stash items that everyone in the family needs in one central location. Narrow and sturdy, rustic console tables can either match up with other furnishings in your room or provide an opportunity to show off your decorating chops with a complementary yet diverse piece.

Rustic sofa tables usually fit behind your sofa, providing a spot to place lamps or items you might reach for while entertaining, reading, or watching TV. Like console tables, these tables typically have a wide yet narrow profile to make the most of tighter spaces. In areas with more open space behind your sofa, half-moon shaped sofa tables with country-style elements lend shabby chic appeal to your space, while spaces with nautical themes benefit from driftwood styling that enhances the look of bottled ships, lighthouse figurines, and seashell sculptures. A wide array of finishes and designs make it simple to pair up rustic sofa tables with your living room suite, whether you have leather or leather-look seating or soft fabric upholstery.

Rustic end tables look best flanking your sofa or sitting beside your loveseat or favorite recliner, giving you space for reading material and remote controls and providing guests with a handy spot to place their beverages and plates during long conversations. These small tables come in a variety of shapes, including tall and small options featuring handy drawers and shelves, low-profile square models that meld well with shorter tables and chairs, and round tables with tripod-style bases. If you want to place a lamp or heavy item on the table, look for one with a sturdy base and build.
