How stable is a pedestal-style table in a home with active pets or children?
This table features a tapered pedestal base designed to provide a centered weight distribution for enhanced stability. While it is built to resist tipping during normal use, the specialty glass top and abstract silhouette make it best suited for lower-traffic areas if you have very active pets or toddlers. For maximum safety, ensure it is placed on a level surface.
Does this accent table need to match my coffee table exactly?
Not necessarily. Contemporary and abstract styles are designed to serve as sophisticated focal points that complement a variety of finishes. The "Shagbark Gray" tone is versatile enough to coordinate with other wood, metal, or upholstered pieces. Mixing materials—such as pairing this glass and wood table with a different coffee table—is a hallmark of modern interior design and helps create a more curated, expert look in your home.
Is a glass-top table a practical choice for a high-traffic living area?
Yes, a glass top is an excellent choice for durability because it is non-porous and naturally resistant to water rings, spills, and stains. Based on our expertise in furniture maintenance, we recommend using a microfiber cloth and a standard glass cleaner to keep the surface free of smudges and fingerprints. This material is ideal for homeowners who want a sophisticated look without the high maintenance required by porous stones or unprotected woods.
How do I determine if the height of this table is appropriate for my sofa or chair?
This table stands at a height of 22 inches. A professional design rule of thumb is to choose an accent table that is within two inches of the height of your sofa or chair's arm. At 22 inches, this piece is perfectly scaled for most modern, low-profile seating, ensuring that drinks or lamps are within easy reach while maintaining a balanced aesthetic in your living space.
What are the assembly requirements for this piece?
Customer assembly is required for this table. The process involves securing the glass top to the tapered wooden pedestal base. We recommend following the included instructions closely to ensure all components are tightly fastened, which preserves the architectural integrity and long-term stability of the contemporary design.
I live in a small urban apartment; is this accent table too bulky for a tight space?
Not at all. With a compact 16x16-inch footprint and a specialty pedestal base, this table is specifically designed for space efficiency. The pedestal design occupies minimal floor real estate compared to traditional four-legged tables, making it an ideal choice for narrow entryways or tight corners in smaller homes where maintaining an open flow of traffic is essential.
