What Is an Accent Table?
An accent table is a small furniture piece designed to complement existing décor while providing functional surface area. Unlike coffee tables, accent tables are typically placed at sofa-arm height and include side tables, end tables, and C-shaped tables that serve both decorative and practical purposes in living spaces.
What You Get With the Sarreid Gilbert Side Table
- Antique Brass Iron Frame -- the matte bronze metal construction provides durability and visual contrast against upholstery and rugs.
- Glass Top Surface -- the clear glass offers a sleek display area for lamps, books, or decorative objects without visual bulk.
- Shagreen-Wrapped Shelf -- the tawny brown shagreen leather base shelf adds tactile texture and a lower storage level for magazines or remote controls.
- Compact Square Footprint -- at 18 inches square, this side table fits tight corners and apartment layouts where space is limited.
- Transitional Design -- the blend of gold, tan, and clear tones allows pairing with both traditional and modern furniture styles.
How Do You Style a Side Table in a Living Room?
Place the Gilbert side table next to a sofa or armchair to anchor a seating vignette, pairing it with a sculptural accent table on the opposite side for symmetry. Layer a small lamp or candle on the glass top with a stack of hardcover books on the shagreen shelf, then add a live plant or decorative bowl. For cohesive living room furniture arrangements, match the brass tones to other metal finishes like cabinet hardware or picture frames.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between a side table and an end table?
- Side tables and end tables refer to the same furniture category -- both are small tables placed beside seating, though "end table" often describes tables at either end of a sofa while "side table" is the broader term.

- How do you style a side table?
- Layer functional items like a lamp or coaster on the top surface, use the lower shelf for books or a decorative box, and add one small personal object such as a framed photo or plant for visual interest.
