Console tables that look luxurious without screaming "expensive" are surprisingly rare -- most either look cheap or price themselves out of reach for everyday buyers. The Chelsea House Waterfall Raffia Covered Console Table is a 60-inch contemporary waterfall console table built for entryways and living spaces that need texture without overwhelming the room, available at LOOMLAN with free shipping to the continental US. This designer piece from the Jamie Merida Collection brings natural raffia texture with antique brass feet in three versatile colorways: warm brown, classic black, and coastal blue.

What Is a Console Table?
A console table is a narrow rectangular table designed to fit against a wall or behind a sofa, typically measuring 12-18 inches deep and 28-36 inches high. Unlike a dining table or coffee table, a console table's primary function is decorative storage and display rather than active use. Also known as a sofa table, entryway table, or hall table, this furniture piece is best for creating visual anchors in transitional spaces like foyers, hallways, and behind seating areas where you need surface space without blocking foot traffic.
What You Get With the Chelsea House Waterfall Raffia Covered Console Table
- Waterfall Silhouette -- The curved rectangular design creates visual flow that softens angular room layouts and makes narrow spaces feel less cramped.
- Natural Raffia Covering -- The entire surface is wrapped in genuine raffia, providing texture that adds warmth without requiring maintenance like wood stain or polish.
- 60-Inch Width -- At five feet wide, this console works behind most standard sofas while providing ample surface space for lamps, decor, and daily items.
- Antique Brass Feet -- The metal feet elevate the raffia body both literally and visually, creating an elegant contrast between natural and refined materials.
- 18-Inch Depth -- The narrow profile keeps it functional for tight hallways and entryways where deeper tables would block foot traffic.
How Do You Style a Narrow Console Table in a Hallway?
Pair this waterfall console with a round or oval mirror above to echo the curved lines, then add a table lamp and a low bowl or tray to keep keys and mail organized. The natural raffia texture works beautifully in both coastal and organic modern spaces -- browse our console tables and accent tables to see complementary pieces. For foyers with more width, consider flanking this console with a pair of sculptural stools from our living room furniture collection.
