Questions About Book End Tables
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    End tables are small tables that sit beside a larger piece of furniture. The height of an end table is generally that of an arm of a chair.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 3, 2024
    How high end tables are varies. Most pieces are 18 to 24 inches tall. To ensure easy access to the tabletop from a sofa or chair, choose a table that is within 2 inches of the height of its arm. For example, if your sofa's arm is 20 inches tall, you could choose a table between 18 and 22 inches in height. Shop a wide range of end tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    End tables typically hold lamps, coasters and other items to keep them within easy reach from the sofa or chair they are next to.

  • 1stDibs ExpertAugust 26, 2024
    The difference between an accent table and an end table comes down to how you use them. Accent tables function primarily as decorations and may be placed almost anywhere in a room. The purpose of an end table is to provide storage space next to a sofa or loveseat. Most people use them in pairs, with one placed on either side of the focal furnishing in a seating area. Find a large collection of accent tables and end tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    There are two differences between end tables and side tables: function and size. Typically, end tables go beside a chair or at opposite ends of a sofa and have smaller tabletops, while side tables go toward the sides of seating areas or against walls and feature a larger surface area. However, many people use the words side and end tables interchangeably, so these differences may not always apply. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of end and side tables.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024
    Yes, end tables are generally taller than coffee tables.

    The term “end table” is frequently used interchangeably with “coffee table,” and while these two furnishings have much in common, each table type offers its own distinctive benefits in your space.

    Your end table is likely going to stand as tall as the arms of your sofa, and its depth will match the seating. These attributes allow for tucking the table neatly at the end of your sofa in order to provide an elevated surface between your seating and the wall. End tables are accent pieces — they’re a close cousin to side tables, but side tables, not unlike the show-stealing low-profile coffee table, are intended to be positioned prominently and have more to do with the flow and design of a room than an end table, which does a great job but does it out of the way of everything else.

    Find all kinds of antique and vintage tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    To stack books on a coffee table, place the largest one on the bottom with the spine facing the focal piece of furniture, usually the sofa. Then, add the next largest, lining up the inner edges so that the spines create a stepped effect. Continue adding books to complete the stack and top it off with a decorative object if you wish. Shop a variety of coffee tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023
    The best height for an end table depends on the sofa or chair beside it. Generally, an end table should be around 3 inches shorter than the arm. A table that is the same height as the arm may also work, but avoid buying tables that are higher than the arm because taller pieces could make it hard to reach objects stored on the tabletops. On 1stDibs, shop a range of end tables.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    You can use a number of things in place of an end table. Place a stool, chest, trunk, barrel or crate beside your sofa or chair, or use a bar cart or freestanding tray to rest a lamp and other objects on. If there is a wall nearby, you can even install a floating shelf within arm’s reach. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of living room furniture.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 23, 2024
    What the tables at the end of couches are called can vary. However, the most common name for tables in this position is end table. You may also see them referred to as side tables, accent tables or occasional tables. On 1stDibs, explore a wide range of end tables.
  • 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 25, 2019

    An end table should be within two inches as high as the chair or sofa it stands next to and equal in depth.

  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 13, 2023
    Bedroom end tables are often called nightstands if they have drawers or cabinet doors included in their designs. Open pieces without built-in storage are sometimes referred to as bedside tables. Shop a collection of nightstands and bedside tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021
    End tables and coffee tables do not need to match. Nevertheless it can be nice to have a similar color scheme or have one set of end tables match and perhaps have the coffee table match a TV stand.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024
    The difference between a nightstand and an end table is their location: A nightstand is in a bedroom, while an end table is in a living area.

    Find end tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023
    Generally, end tables should be about the same height as the arm of your couch. When the tables aren't significantly taller or shorter, you can reach the tabletop to access items or switch on a lamp with greater ease. Shop a range of end tables on 1stDibs.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The end chairs are called an armchair. Typically found at the head of the table, these specific chairs have armrests and give off a more formal feel. You can shop a collection of armchairs and dining tables from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
