What is a console in a living room?
In a living room, a console is a type of table. Typically, consoles are about the height of a desk but are much narrower. As a result, they work well against walls and can be used to hold lamps and decorative objects. Some also feature shelves for display and storage space or cabinet doors and drawers for hiding clutter. Shop a selection of console tables on 1stDibs.
