This brass and smoked glass coffee table adds a contemporary touch while maintaining lightness, featuring a blend of materials that captures light without weighing down the space. Its square shape allows it to fit naturally in front of a sofa, in a living room where it holds books, a vase, or a serving tray. The golden brass interacts with the transparent smoked glass to create a second-hand piece with a refined look, easy to associate with fabric seating or darker furniture. Placed on a textured rug, it becomes the ideal support for a low lamp and a few carefully chosen beautiful objects. Length: 41 cm Width: 35.5 cm Height: 36 cm A brief history of the coffee table Unlike dining tables, the coffee table only truly emerged in the early 20th century with the evolution of living rooms towards more comfort and relaxation. Its structure, intentionally low to align with the height of armchairs, is inspired by Eastern tea tables and 19th-century coffee stands. Known as a "living room table" or "cocktail table," it is defined by its generous top supported by a short and sturdy base.
