Console tables are tall furniture pieces, usually around thirty to thirty-three inches in height, which are designed for use as display tables or similar types of accent furniture.
In terms of height, these tables tend to be lower than kitchen counters or dining tables but higher than coffee tables and come in a range of shapes including rectangular, square and round. Some of them even feature mirrors that are built into the design.
Most console tables rely on wall support for stability, often with one or two legs attached to the wall and screws used to secure the back of the table. They have immensely grown in popularity over the years and since they are generally narrow in width, they can be placed in almost any room of the house.
Traditionally made from wood, they now come in various materials, sizes, shapes and finishes with ornate details or crisp, clean lines.
With a wide range of materials to choose from such as wood, glass, metal or synthetic varieties - you'll easily find one that beautifully complements your style and existing décor.
The most common place we see them is the entryway or the hallway where they are usually paired with a mirror, accent chairs, lamps and other complementing accessories.
Many people choose consoles with storage for the living room and place them behind sofas.
Another great spot is in the dining room where they can be used to cover any unused wall or even as a buffet table to serve snacks.
Because of their sleek designs, they can also be used in many unconventional places such as offices, bedrooms and walk-in wardrobes.
Consoles can be decorative, functional or both - depending on the design that you choose. They’ve become an integral part of modern homes as they help fill out empty spaces while elevating the overall aesthetics of the space.
They’re also a great purchase as their narrow structure allows them to fit in any room without wasting floor space.

Cattelan Italia is one of the best Italian furniture brands and it’s highly recommended by interior designers because of the premium quality materials and techniques used in the manufacturing processes.
Their console tables stand out from other products available in the market because of their modern and unique designs.
Another reason we recommend this brand is that all their products can be customised in various materials and finishes to create a bespoke product for you, that is 100% made in Italy.
If you’re buying the console for your entryway, then it will be one of the first things your guests see when they enter your home. Hence, they must be stylish enough to make a statement and you can always count on Cattelan Italia for this.
So summing up, if you want a long-lasting, high-quality console that will look as good and stylish as new, even after decades of use then we recommend you choose Cattelan Italia console tables and you’ll surely find them to be a worthy investment.
However, if you’re happy with an average quality product that you can replace after a few years of use, then it would be best to go for other, more budget-friendly options.
While we can assist you in buying any Cattelan Italia console table of your choice, it’s natural for us to have some favourites in our extensive collection.
So here are our most recommended products:
