Braedy Cream Console Table

For a balanced look, a sofa table should be level with or slightly shorter than the back of your sofa. Standing at 31 inches tall, this table is designed to align with most standard sofa heights. Proportionality is also key; the 64-inch width of this piece makes it an ideal fit for full-sized sofas or larger sectionals, as it covers approximately two-thirds of the sofa's length.

While these terms are often used interchangeably, the distinction typically lies in placement. A sofa table is specifically designed to sit behind a couch to provide a surface for lamps or decor, while a console table is a versatile piece often placed against a wall in an entryway. With its expandable depth—ranging from a slim 18 inches to a full 36 inches—this table is uniquely designed to function as both a narrow accent piece and a spacious serving station.

An expandable top provides exceptional versatility, allowing the piece to transition seamlessly from a stylish accent to a functional workspace or serving station. This design is particularly useful for hosting, as it can be tucked behind a sofa during daily use and extended during gatherings. The sturdy trestle base and pedestal legs ensure the table remains stable and durable even when fully extended.

This table is a perfect choice for defining zones in a large, open-concept home. Because it features elegant open X-side detailing and a finished trestle base, it is aesthetically pleasing from every angle. Placing it behind a floating sofa creates a sophisticated visual boundary between your living area and dining space while maintaining the airy, coastal farmhouse feel of the room.

This table is an excellent solution for urban living or homes with tight floor plans. In its closed position, the table features a shallow 18-inch depth, allowing it to fit into narrow hallways or entryways without obstructing traffic. When needed for entertaining, the plank-style top expands to a 36-inch depth, providing the utility of a larger furniture piece only when necessary.

To preserve the integrity of the solid pine and elm veneers, we recommend dusting regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth. For spills, our care guidelines suggest using a cloth lightly dampened with mild soap and water, followed by immediate drying. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive polishes, as these can strip the distressed cream and gray finish and damage the natural wood grain over time.
