Console Tables (31 Products)

Console tables offer a slim, practical surface for hallways, entryways, and living spaces. Often used as a hall table, they provide a place for keys, decor, or lighting without taking up much room. Positioned against a wall, they help structure transitional areas.

Console Tables in Timber, Modern, and Classic Styles

Console tables are defined by their slim profile, making them easy to place along walls or within narrower spaces. From a simple entryway table to a console table with drawers, these pieces offer a balance of surface space and optional storage.

Console Tables in Timber, Modern, and Classic Styles

Console tables are defined by their slim profile, making them easy to place along walls or within narrower spaces. From a simple entryway table to a console table with drawers, these pieces offer a balance of surface space and optional storage.

Timber designs bring warmth, while metal or glass combinations introduce a more structured, modern feel. Some styles feature open shelving for display, while others include drawers to keep everyday items out of sight. Used in a hallway, entryway, or behind a sofa, a well-placed console table helps organise the space without adding bulk.

You can pair a console with smaller surfaces from our side tables collection or explore complementary pieces across our wider furniture range to create a more connected layout.

Guide to Choosing a Console Table for Your Space

Instead of starting with measurements, think about where the piece will sit and how it needs to behave in the space. In narrower areas, a hallway table with a slim profile keeps the walkway clear while still providing a usable surface.

From there, consider the function. Some layouts call for hidden storage, where drawers help keep smaller items out of sight. Others benefit from a more open design, allowing space for styling or everyday access. A hallway console table near an entry might lean practical, while one placed behind a sofa can be more decorative.

Material then becomes a finishing layer. Timber brings a softer, more relaxed feel, while mixed materials introduce contrast and definition. When these elements align, the console table sits comfortably within the room without needing to stand out.
