What Is a Console Table?
A console table is a narrow rectangular table designed to sit against a wall or behind furniture, typically measuring 10-18 inches deep and 28-36 inches tall. Unlike dining tables or coffee tables that need clearance on all sides, console tables work in tight spaces and serve both functional and decorative purposes, bridging the gap between storage and display furniture.
What You Get With the Currey & Company Demi Travertine Console Table
- Solid Travertine Construction -- This table is carved from genuine travertine stone, not a composite or veneer over particle board, providing thermal mass and natural texture impossible to replicate artificially.
- Sculptural Oval Cutouts -- The signature design consists of oval openings carved through both sides of the pedestal base, called oculi in architectural terms, transforming a simple slab into a functional sculpture.
- Natural Veining Patterns -- Each piece showcases unique veining inherent in travertine stone, meaning no two tables are identical.
- Chamfered Top Edge -- The top features chamfered detailing that adds architectural refinement to the surface edge.
- Tapered Pedestal Base -- The base tapers gracefully toward the top, creating visual lightness despite the substantial 233-pound weight that ensures stability once positioned.
Where Does a Narrow Console Table Work Best?
Position this 14-inch-deep table behind a sofa to anchor seating zones in open floor plans, or use it as an entryway table in foyers where first impressions matter. The beige travertine finish pairs naturally with pieces from our accent tables collection, while the contemporary sculptural form complements modern dining room furniture when used as a buffet alternative.
