What Is an Accent Table?
An accent table is a small furniture piece designed to add visual interest and functional surface area to a room, often featuring decorative details or sculptural forms that distinguish it from standard end tables. Unlike utilitarian side tables, accent tables prioritize artistic design and serve as focal points that anchor a space's aesthetic. The Abu exemplifies this category with its whimsical ape sculpture and metallic finish.
What You Get With the Currey & Co Abu Accent Table
- Cast Aluminum Construction -- the entire piece is molded from durable cast aluminum, ensuring stability and longevity while keeping the weight manageable.
- Antique Gold Finish -- a hand-applied finish creates the look of aged metal, with natural variations that enhance the Bohemian style and vintage appeal.
- Sculptural Ape Design -- a seated ape figure supports the round tabletop, adding playful character and artisan craftsmanship to any room.
- Creased Tabletop Detail -- molded creases in the 20-inch diameter surface reinforce the vintage aesthetic and provide subtle texture.
- Versatile 23.25-Inch Height -- sized to pair comfortably with standard sofas and chairs, making it ideal for beside-seating placement or as a standalone display pedestal.
- Handcrafted in India -- each table is individually finished, resulting in unique color variations within tolerable dye lot specifications.
How Do You Style a Side Table?
Place the Abu beside an upholstered armchair in a reading nook, where its antique gold finish complements warm textiles and layered lighting. In accent tables groupings, pair it with contrasting materials like wood or marble to create visual tension, or anchor it in a gallery wall arrangement where the ape sculpture echoes other artistic forms. For dining room furniture vignettes, use it as a drink station or plant stand near sideboards, letting the Bohemian style bridge formal and eclectic elements.
