Brown Coffee Tables

A brown coffee table warms up the living room and complements most décors. Here, the color mainly comes from the material: mango, mindi or acacia wood, walnut veneer, sometimes combined with travertine or metal. Each wood species has its own shade of brown and distinctive grain pattern, which is why choosing the right material is so important.

Which shade of brown should you choose for your coffee table?

Dark tones dominate the collection: dark mindi for the Brandan and Galia, dark brown mango wood for the Selma and Maya, and dark wood for the Sadi. Walnut, used as veneer on the Nubia and Côme side tables or combined with mango wood on the Livio, brings another shade of brown. A dark tone stands out against a light sofa and beige or ecru textiles. The Brandan is also available in black mindi, among our black coffee tables.

Which woods and finishes are available for a brown coffee table?

Solid wood is used for the Brandan and Galia in mindi, the Maya in mango wood, and the Suzon and Capucine side tables in acacia. Veneer, a thin layer of wood applied to a support, covers the Nubia and Côme walnut side tables. Other models combine wood with another material: brushed metal for the Selma, travertine for the Sierra, and metal for the Shanghai side tables. The appearance of the grain varies from one model to another; for care instructions, follow the guidelines on the product page.

How can you incorporate a brown coffee table into your living room?

Consider the contrast with the sofa: dark wood stands out against light upholstery, while a wood and travertine model such as the Sierra softens a dark sofa. The Aréto measures 150 cm in length and the Galia 80 cm in diameter; general advice can be found on our coffee tables page. Wood works well in both natural and contemporary interiors.
