Finding the Right Sofa-tables for You

Taller than a coffee table and more elongated and narrow, a sofa table is designed to nestle against the back of a sofa. One-of-a-kind antique, vintage and new sofa tables make a statement while also dividing the room or displaying decorative objects.

Sofa tables are similar to Pembroke tables, which emerged in the 18th century but were positioned in front of the sofa for serving tea or playing cards. The popular furnishing now comes in a range of styles.

Rustic living areas can incorporate natural wood sofa tables that complement the space. Brutalist sofa tables combine organic materials with a distinctly contemporary edge to contrast city and country styles. Scandinavian modern sofa tables offer a sleeker aesthetic. These wooden pieces often have simple designs and few embellishments, with angular lines and experimental structures that enhance any living room.

Notably, minimalist sofa tables frequently feature slightly slimmer profiles. Instead of consisting primarily of wood, these tables are often made of luxurious granite, gleaming brass or lightweight aluminum.

Questions About Coromandel Sofa Table

  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019

    A sofa table, or a console, should be the same height as the sofa in front of it.

  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 22, 2019

    The difference between a sofa table and a coffee table is that a sofa table is always behind the sofa and a coffee table is in front of it. Additionally, a sofa table is the same height as the sofa and a coffee table is much shorter.

    What a sofa set table is called depends on its size and design. A sofa set most often includes a low table designed to be placed in front of the sofa. These tables are usually called coffee tables. However, a set may also contain smaller, taller tables for positioning on either end of the couch. This type of table is an end table or side table. In addition, a sofa set may provide a sofa table or console table, which is a taller, longer table that is often placed behind a sofa. Shop a selection of sofa sets and accent tables on 1stDibs.

    No, a side table shouldn't always be lower than a sofa. To make it easy to access items on a table, a sofa's arms should generally be no more than 2 to 3 inches above or below the tabletop. This rule of thumb differs from the one for coffee tables, which should be as tall or 1 to 2 inches shorter than the seat height of the sofa to ensure a balanced look. Explore a large selection of side tables on 1stDibs.

    As a general rule, choose a coffee table roughly two-thirds the length of the sofa, with the top 1 to 2 inches lower than the seat cushions.

    Compared to a sofa, a coffee table should be about two-thirds of the length of a sofa.

In terms of height, a sofa should be around 2 inches taller than the coffee table. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of coffee tables.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 16, 2026
    Look for a table 15 to 18 inches tall to match the lower seat height common to mid-century sofas; a taller table can feel out of proportion next to a low-slung frame.
