Console and Hall Tables

What is a Console Table? 

A console table is a versatile piece of furniture typically characterised by its narrow width and taller height compared to other tables. Console tables are designed to be placed against a wall, making them ideal for hallways, entryways, or behind sofas. These tables often serve both decorative and functional purposes, providing a surface for displaying decorative items such as vases, photo frames, or lamps while also offering additional storage space. 

Is There a Difference Between a Console Table and a Hall Table? 

A hall table is generally designed specifically for hallways and entryways, often featuring narrower dimensions and more straightforward designs to fit tight spaces. Console tables can be used in various locations throughout the home, including living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms. Both types of tables offer functionality and style, but their specific uses and designs can vary. 

What are the Standard Dimensions for Console and Hall Tables? 

There aren’t exactly standard dimensions for console and hall tables, but they are typically narrow and tall to fit in smaller spaces. A side console table can range from 70 to100 cm in height, 30 to 45cm in depth, and 75 to 130cm in length. The narrow design makes them perfect for tight spaces like hallways, where a narrow hallway table can fit comfortably without obstructing the passage. 

Where Are Common Places to Use Console Tables in Your Home? 

Console tables can be used in various locations throughout your home. They are commonly placed in hallways and entryways to provide a surface for keys, mail, and decorative items, creating a welcoming first impression. In living rooms, a hallway side table can be placed behind a sofa or along a wall to display artwork, lamps, or family photos. Console tables also work well in dining rooms as a buffet or serving table and in bedrooms as a vanity or additional storage space. 

What Are Different Ways You Can Style a Console Table? 

Styling a console table depends on the location and purpose. In hallways, a hall table can be styled with a mirror or artwork above it, decorative bowls for keys, and fresh flowers for a welcoming touch. In living rooms, a wooden console table can hold books, candles, and framed photos. For an entryway, consider using baskets or trays on the lower shelf for organised storage. Adding a lamp can create a cosy atmosphere, especially for a hallway console table. 

Can Console Tables Be Used for Storage? 

Console tables often include storage options such as drawers or lower shelves. A hall table with drawers provides a place to store small items like keys, notepads, or mail. A hallway table with storage can include baskets or bins on the lower shelf to hide away clutter.
