Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between accent tables, side tables, and end tables?
These terms are often used interchangeably, but there are subtle differences. End tables typically sit beside sofas or chairs at arm height. Side tables are versatile pieces used anywhere you need a surface—bedrooms, hallways, or living rooms. Accent tables is a broader term encompassing both, plus console tables and other decorative tables that add style and function. All serve to enhance your space while providing convenient surfaces for lamps, drinks, or décor.
What size accent table should I choose?
For end tables beside sofas or chairs, choose tables that are within 2 inches of the arm height—typically 24-27 inches tall. The table should be roughly the same depth as your seating or slightly smaller. For console tables in entryways, look for heights of 30-36 inches and widths that fit your wall space comfortably. Consider the scale of your room and furniture—larger spaces can handle more substantial pieces.
Where should I place accent tables in my home?
Accent tables are incredibly versatile! Place end tables beside sofas and armchairs in living rooms, as nightstands in bedrooms, or flanking entryway consoles. Console tables work beautifully in hallways, behind sofas, or in dining rooms as serving stations. Side tables can go anywhere you need a surface—next to reading chairs, in corners, or even in bathrooms for extra storage. For outdoor spaces, explore our outdoor accent tables collection.
What styles of accent tables are available?
Our accent table collection features a wide range of styles to suit any aesthetic. From sleek contemporary designs to industrial metal frames, mid-century modern classics to minimalist Scandinavian pieces.

How do I style an accent table?
Start with a functional item like a lamp for end tables or a decorative tray for console tables. Add height variation with books, small sculptures, or plants. Include personal touches like framed photos or collected objects. Keep it balanced—odd numbers (groups of 3 or 5) create visual interest. Don't overcrowd—leave some negative space. Layer textures and vary heights for a curated, designer look that feels intentional yet effortless.
