Side Tables
Our side tables are neat and modern, with a craftsman twist. Each one is individually handmade, with the sculptural legs carved by our woodworker friend, Steve just down the road from our workshop. You’ve got an array of options when it comes to personalising our side tables, from colour to leg design and size, you can create the perfect side table for your living room.

Luxury Side Tables Handcrafted in the UK
Our side tables are expertly handcrafted for quality and character. These are multifunctional furniture designs which work just as well as stools as they do side tables. They come in a choice of sizes and paint colours, so whether you want a large side table for your sofa, or a small side table to place next to an armchair, you can choose the perfect coordinating colour. You can also customise our designs by choosing between straight or bobbin legs. Both styles of leg are handcrafted by a local woodworker based just down the road from our East Midlands workshop.
We take pride in the quality and sustainability of the materials we use. Our side tables are formed in FSC-certified wood, sourced from European forests to minimise mileage. We use top-notch hardwood which stands up well to the realities of modern life, supporting your daily rhythms in style. Our end tables are designed to sit in harmony with the rest of our collection, drawing inspiration from the core Arlo colour palette of rich, nature-inspired hues. To create your perfect side table, book a complimentary online style consultation or visit one of our showrooms for expert guidance.
Side Table FAQs
How do I Choose the Right Size Side Table for my Sofa or Armchair?
The ideal side table should align closely with the arm height of your main seating. We recommend a table that is either slightly below or perfectly level with the arm of your sofa or armchair. This ensures everything from a cup of coffee to a book is within comfortable reach. Make sure the table’s depth still allows for easy movement around your room, especially in smaller spaces.
What Can I Use a Side Table for?
Our side tables are incredibly versatile. While they function beautifully as a classic lamp table to illuminate your space, they are also perfect for displaying books or candles, holding drinks, or even as a stool when you need a little extra seating.
How Should I Style a Side Table to Complement my Living Room?
Dressing a side table is all about your personality and interior aesthetic. Try using the 'Rule of Three': a lamp, a book stack, and a small decorative object. If your main sofa or chair is patterned, choose a simple table and vice versa.
How do I Care for and Maintain my Side Table?
To ensure your side table remains a beautiful centrepiece, regular gentle cleaning is key. For our wooden side tables, we recommend dusting with a soft, dry cloth and avoiding harsh chemical cleaners.
Should I Choose a Round or a Square Side Table for my Living Room?
The shape of your side table can significantly impact your room's flow. Round side tables, like the Tailor Bobbin Leg Small Side Table, are excellent for breaking up angular lines (from sofas and rugs) and are often better for high-traffic areas as they eliminate sharp corners. Square side tables, like our Tailor Lamp Table, offer a more defined surface area and work well in larger, more formal settings. Consider your existing living room layout to find the best fit.
