Positano Tessellated Rectangular Console Table

At 14.25 inches deep, it delivers maximum visual impact in a slim footprint perfect for narrow entryways, behind-sofa placement, or hallway positioning.

Full Specifications

What Is a Console Table?

A console table is a narrow rectangular table typically 28-32 inches in height, designed to sit against walls in entryways, hallways, or behind sofas. Unlike dining tables or coffee tables, a console table prioritizes a slim profile over seating functionality, making it ideal for spaces needing surface area without depth. Console tables are also called sofa tables, hall tables, or entryway tables depending on placement.

What You Get With the Wildwood Positano Console Table

1. Genuine Tessellated Stone Construction -- This isn't painted wood or laminate; the entire table features genuine tessellated stone with intricate inlaid patterns that create depth and visual interest from every angle, with each piece carefully fitted for a unique pattern variation.
2. Architectural Black and White Striping -- The dramatic striped pattern references classical Italian cathedral floors while maintaining a clean contemporary aesthetic that works equally well in modern minimalist spaces and traditional interiors.
3. Narrow 14.25-Inch Depth -- The slim profile fits perfectly in tight hallways, narrow entryways, or behind sofas where standard furniture would protrude too far into walking paths.
4. Sled Base Stability -- The sled-style leg design provides excellent stability while maintaining clean modern lines that don't compete with the bold stone pattern above.
5. Quick Assembly -- Minimal 10-15 minute assembly required, getting this architectural statement piece ready for display fast.

Where Does a Narrow Console Table Work Best?

The Positano's 14.25-inch depth makes it ideal for narrow hallways and entryways where standard furniture feels too bulky. Position it behind a sofa as a dramatic room divider, or use it in an entry to display art and lighting above its striking stone surface. Pair with other console tables in connected spaces for visual continuity, or contrast its bold pattern with simpler accent tables throughout your home.
