Coffee tables are an essential piece of furniture that can tie together your whole room aesthetic. A multifunctional piece, the coffee table can be used for decor, storage, a footrest, a table, and an artistic addition to your room.
Mid-century and mid-century modern coffee tables have become a popular choice for consumers for their simple and sleek yet bold styles, the types of wood and materials used, and unique functionality. While some designs use a singular material, like wood, many styles of mid-century modern use a mix of materials including wood, metal, and glass.
## What’s The Difference Between Mid-Century And Mid-Century Modern?
While they may seem like similar technologies in furniture design, there is actually a difference. Both styles were designed with function and form as leading priorities, but mid-century modern took the basics of the more practical-minded mid-century movement from the 1930’s and enhanced with more materials and an easier price point after WWII.
One distinct similarity for both is that mid-century and mid-century modern furniture is built to last. Not only are these coffee tables timeless in their design, often made with solid wood, tapering legs, and recognizable flair, but they are also well-built to provide excellent support for years and years, making them a great choice when selecting a coffee table.
## How to Find the Best Mid-Century Modern Coffee Table:
When searching for your mid-century or mid-century modern coffee table, you’ll want to first consider your use for it. Will this be for a coffee table or for end tables? Perhaps both?
1. **Esplanade - **If you’re looking for a set that offers both, you’ll find our wood Esplanade cocktail and Esplanade side tables to be the perfect duo to create a cohesive space with added design flair. Made of solid wood and a sturdy base, these pieces will make a simple statement in your living room.
2. **Blakeney Consol - **Finding the perfect spot for your mid-century coffee table won’t be difficult. The sleek design of these tables allows for easy placement in practically any room, like our Blakeney Console. To achieve a similar look but with hidden storage, our Blakeney Console mid-century table achieves just that with the same three-tiered look and double drawers. Consider your front entry, your living room, or even a hallway for this sleek and sophisticated table. Made from wood with a unique cut-out shape on either side, it will add contrast and interest in any room you choose.
3. **Javadi -** If you’re looking for more than just a coffee table, but also storage, our mid-century modern coffee tables can serve both your needs, like our Javadi Coffee Table. Outfitted with apothecary style drawers and iconic harepin legs, the combination of wood and metal materials add both personality and beauty to your room with a side of function.
4. **Lagoon -** When looking for larger tables or accent pieces that account for both art and storage, our mid-century modern Lagoon Sofa Table is an excellent option. Made from wood and designed with three tiers of open storage, this piece fuses simplicity with sophistication.
