Grasonville Dark Gray Cocktail Table

To ensure a balanced look and comfortable use, follow the "two-thirds rule": the table should be approximately two-thirds the length of your sofa. This 36-inch round table is ideally suited for standard sofas and smaller sectionals. For accessibility, our experts recommend placing the table 16 to 18 inches away from the sofa, which provides enough legroom while keeping the surface within easy reach.

The Grasonville features a stone top inspired by the smooth texture of marble. To preserve the finish, we recommend regular dusting with a soft, dry cloth. For spills, use only a mild soap and water solution; avoid acidic or abrasive cleaners, as they can dull the surface over time. Based on our material expertise, using coasters for drinks and felt pads for decor items is the best way to prevent staining and scratching.

Yes, round tables are an excellent choice for family-friendly environments. The Grasonville’s round silhouette eliminates sharp corners, significantly reducing the risk of bumps or bruises for active toddlers. Additionally, the sturdy cross-leg metal base provides reliable stability for high-traffic living rooms.

While these terms are often used interchangeably, a cocktail table like the Grasonville typically refers to a piece designed for more social or formal settings. Traditionally, cocktail tables were slightly more decorative and intended for serving drinks and snacks, whereas coffee tables were viewed as more casual, everyday surfaces. However, both serve as the central anchor of a seating area and provide essential surface space.

This table is exceptionally well-suited for compact living. Its 36-inch round diameter offers a generous surface area without the visual bulk of a rectangular piece. Round tables naturally encourage better traffic flow in tight spaces because they lack protruding corners, making a room feel more open and easier to navigate.

To create a professionally styled look, try using the "rule of thirds." Group your items—such as a stack of books, a small plant, and a decorative tray—into a triangular arrangement. Trays are particularly effective on round surfaces like this one, as they provide a structured, linear contrast to the table's curves while keeping remotes and coasters organized.
