- Coffee table; occasional table : Coffee table refers to a low table used next to couches where books and magazines and other small items can be placed and coffee, beverages or cocktails are served.

Occasional tables are smaller ?accent? tables usually named for their location (side, sofa, end, hall, center), their use (cocktail, coffee, tea, china, writing), or their form (folding, console, extension, drop-leaf, tilt-top, swivel-top, nesting).

Whether crafted from rich woods, glass, stone or metal, occasional tables are a great way to make any living area more liveable!
