This oval coffee table made of ceramic and iron immediately catches the eye. It consists of a top made of ceramic tiles featuring geometric and plant motifs, and its base is made of black wrought iron with twisted supports. A second-hand piece, it naturally fits into a living room and offers a unique and original presence without weighing down the space. Its surface can hold books, magazines, and other everyday items during coffee time. Positioned on a simple rug, it pairs well with a linen sofa and a colored glass vase. Length: 133 cm Width: 52 cm Height: 40 cm A brief history of the coffee table Unlike dining tables, the coffee table only emerged in the early 20th century with the evolution of living rooms towards greater comfort and relaxation. Its structure, deliberately low to align with the seating of armchairs, is inspired by Eastern tea tables and 19th-century coffee support tables. Referred to as a "parlor table" or "cocktail table," it is characterized by its generous top supported by a short and sturdy base.
