A mid century table sits low on a slim teak or walnut top over hairpin or peg legs, spanning coffee, side and dining forms with a nearly bare surface; the wider category sits under mid century furniture. We pick mid century tables at Eleish Van Breems Home for a modern room.
Which mid century table suits a living room?
A mid century table for a living room usually means a low coffee or side table sized to the seating, a teak surface at about sofa-seat height, paired with a Verellen ottoman for softness. Match the length to the sofa and leave room to move around it.
How do mid century tables pair with modern seating?
Mid century tables pair with modern seating when a warm-wood top sets off a plain sofa or a set of clean chairs, the era's line tying the group together, beside mid-century seating of the same period. Keep the surface nearly clear so the shape of the table shows.
What maintenance does a teak or walnut mid century table call for?
A teak or walnut mid century table wants oiling now and then according to its finish, mats under hot and wet items, and a wipe rather than harsh cleaners; side pieces sit under side tables. Follow the care appropriate to the wood and finish, and keep standing moisture away from the surface.
