Full Specifications

What Is a Console Table?

A console table is a narrow, elongated table designed to sit against a wall or behind a sofa, typically measuring 28-36 inches in height. Unlike dining tables or coffee tables, console tables prioritize display and storage over seating. Also known as a sofa table, entryway table, or hall table, these pieces work best in transitional spaces like foyers, hallways, and living rooms.

What You Get With the Chelsea House Rhea Console Table

1. Sculptural Sled Base Design -- The modernist sled legs create an architectural statement that appears to float the tabletop, making this piece as much art as furniture.
2. Generous 70-Inch Width -- At nearly 6 feet wide, this console can anchor large walls and work behind sectional sofas, allowing you to create multiple vignettes across the surface.
3. Space-Smart 16-Inch Depth -- Deep enough for layered styling with lamps and decorative objects, yet narrow enough for hallways and entryways where traffic flow matters.
4. Professional Designer Pedigree -- Created by Shayla Copas, this piece reflects studied proportions and material choices that work across interior styles.
5. Crisp White Colorway -- The neutral palette works with any wall color and allows your accessories to take center stage.

How Should You Style a Console Table Behind a Couch?

Place the Rhea console behind a sectional sofa to define zones in open-concept spaces, pairing it with accent tables on either side for balanced symmetry. Layer the 70-inch surface with table lamps, books, and sculptural objects in varying heights to create visual interest that complements your living room furniture. In a dining room, position it against a wall as a buffet alternative alongside your dining room furniture to hold serving pieces or display seasonal decor.
