This Friday, rather than a property porn post I thought I’d utilise the 4Homes Product Search to pick out five very different bits of furniture I’d happily have in my home. Deciding to search for coffee tables was a direct result of me clutching a mug of the dark stuff at the time. We’re a spontaneous bunch in the 4Homes office.
1. The Budget Option
Style doesn’t have to cost the earth, and if you’ve got a chic, modern look to your home, this perspex lovely by Patricia Urquiola could fit right in.
Kartell Usame Coffee Table, £134.99, nest.co.uk
2. The Mad Men Option
The slick US drama set in an effortlessly cool 1960 Madison Avenue ad agency has some of the finest sets, wardrobes and props ever assembled for television. With this coffee table in your lounge, you can pretend you’re stepping into Don Draper’s office every time you walk through the front door.
Jude Coffee Table, £299, John Lewis
3. The Chunky Option
This solid pine number wouldn’t look out of place in the waiting room of a Swedish sauna. Its hefty construction isn’t overpowering thanks to a very simple three-piece design. The perpendicular legs also help make a very chunky coffee table feel light and modern.
Metro Large Coffee Table, £190.00, Fornisca.com
4. The Minimalist Option
Sculpted fibreglass and one-piece construction mean that this is about as minimalist as coffee tables get. Forget the practicalities (will it look as good covered in coffee stains?) and enjoy it for what it is.
Oracle Coffee Table, £495, Heal’s
5. The Unattainable Option
This exquisite table by two leading British furniture makers of the Art Deco era, Harry and Lou Epstein, is both beautiful and highly collectible. Its curves and finish are quinessentially of their time, while its quality of construction is more or less guaranteed thanks to the Epstein name. Drool all you like – it’s already sold to some lucky customer for the £1150 asking price.
Art Deco Epstein Coffee Table, £SOLD, thefurniturerooms.co.uk
