British Colonial influences and crisp architectural detailing set it well apart from the typical glass-top coffee table.

The generous oval frame shows off striking grain, layered moldings, and unusual stepped accents. Eight turned faux bamboo legs are joined by gently curved stretchers, forming an open, sculptural base that looks finished from every angle, which makes it ideal for floating in the middle of a seating group.

The beveled glass lets light pass through and puts that base on full display, so the substantial wood frame never feels heavy. It’s equally at home in traditional, transitional, and eclectic interiors.

JUNE'S THOUGHTS
What first caught my attention was the beautiful wood grain and the unusual detailing around the oval frame. The stepped moldings and bamboo-inspired supports give this table an architectural quality that sets it apart from more conventional glass-top coffee tables. And I particularly like the way the beveled glass allows a beautiful rug to become part of the composition rather than hiding it.
