Round End Table | Rounding Out Your Room Décor

Arthur had his Round Table. But you can have something he never would have dreamed of: round end tables. For decades, it was hip to be square or rectangle when it came to end tables.  But, round end tables are the in thing now. And with good reason. They break up the squareness of a room, add visual interest and offer the same if not more table surface for lights, accents and drinks.

The variety of round end tables available on the market is staggering. Here are the choices you will face when purchasing round end tables.

Size  - Whether you need very small round end tables of 18 to 24 inches or much larger round end tables, you will first have to select the width that is best for the space you are decorating. Remember to measure the height the table needs to reach to best suit your seating arrangement as well. You don’t want the table sitting up high over the furniture, nor do you want to have to reach down to get to it.

Materials – Round end tables come in every imaginable furniture material. Wood round end tables can be as simple as a sanded oak wood table or as beautiful as a hand-tooled top of mahogany. In metal a round end table can be made of a very modern steel or aluminum, or take on a rustic appearance with wrought iron or hammered copper.  Other options for round end tables include glass in clear, frosted or etched varieties, tile, marble, bamboo and exotic wood inlays.

Style – What is the rest of your home décor saying? You should choose round end tables to match.  If you have a rustic or old-world feel to your home, you may want to look into wrought iron crafted round end tables. Thinking of adopting a contemporary home motif? Look for metals and glass round end tables with sharper and sleeker geometric lines.

Leg Shape – Some round end tables come in the ever-popular pedestal design with small-footed legs at the base. But you may want to consider other models that offer a more substantial look, such as those with three or four legs that emanate from the top, rather than a pedestal.

Decoration – From hand-carved accents and intricate inlays of exotic woods to painted floral designs or even oriental motifs, the décor you choose in your round end tables can either be an accent piece or the focal point of the room.

Extras – Not only can you get round end tables in a number of colors and materials, you can also get them with useful extras. Some round end tables have extra folding leaves that will let you expand them to a larger surface for entertaining. Other round end tables have a number of drawers that you can use to store away things you need close by, but would like to have out of sight. Still others have bookshelves, so reading material is always nearby.
