Teak Root Coffee Tables, Side Tables and Consoles
A teak root coffee table is a true one-off. The twisting root becomes the base or the whole table. It turns an everyday piece into living room art.
Coffee Tables
Teak root coffee tables often have a flat polished top or a glass top that shows the roots below. They suit modern, coastal and Scandi rooms. Keep the area around them simple to let the shape stand out.
Side Tables
Smaller root side tables sit beside sofas and beds. They're perfect for a lamp or a plant. A pair of different side tables looks deliberately eclectic.
Consoles
Root consoles make an unforgettable hallway feature. Add a round mirror above and a single vase on top. See our teak root side tables and consoles.
Choosing a Size
- Coffee table length: about two thirds of your sofa.
- Height: level with or just below the sofa seat.
- Side table height: level with the sofa arm.
- Console depth: 30 to 40cm for halls.
Natural Characteristics
Every root is unique. Expect natural knots, cracks and variations in colour. These are signs of real wood, not flaws.
Care
Use coasters on wooden tops. Clean glass tops with glass cleaner on a cloth. Dust crevices with a soft brush. Keep away from radiators and strong sun.
