Sometimes you just need a small table to stand quietly next to the wall. Console or hallway tables perform just that function as they are narrow enough to get past even in a typical hallway or landing. Often, they come with a depth of fewer than 12 inches and still provide a place to dump your car keys, shopping bags and other knick-knacks. Of course, you can make them a centrepiece too and they are the perfect height and width to display family photos, plants and ornaments.

As well as being handy to have in hallways, console tables also work if you are stretched for space in the living room and can’t accommodate a coffee table. Or you can maximise unused nooks and crannies, such as gaps between walls and doorways, or bay windows. They give you that extra bit of storage or display space without taking up much room. There are plenty of designs, from the basic console table, comprising of a simple top and legs to something that has drawers, doors and shelves and offers extra storage opportunities. We cater for all tastes too, with traditional wooden styles, glass-topped tables, mirrored looks and painted designs in neutrals, bright colours or black.
