Matching furniture wood tones in open plan living dining areas is one of the keys to design success in these spaces.
With this in mind, and after requests from customers, we designed a range of circular side tables to sit alongside the rest of our furniture collection. As with everything we do at Meraki, we’ve tried to give you as much choice as possible – so our side tables are available in four sizes, all in a choice of 20 tonal options.
Once you’ve decided which works best for you, only then do we use our experience and expertise to start handcrafting it. Each table is made to order using sustainable European Oak and is then ready to be delivered 4-6 weeks later.
We’re always on hand to answer any questions you may have, and encourage you to visit our Warrington Design Studio and workshop where you can view all our sizes, leg styles and tonal options.
Inspired by the timeless charm of classic farmhouse tables, our Brushed Collection introduces a texture that not only feels delightful to the touch but also looks elegant.
We start with carefully chosen wide boards, all with lively character, using a blend of prime and nature-grade European oak. We then gently remove the soft summer growth from each board, to reveal a distinctive texture that highlights the grain under natural light.
The boards are then finished using one of our eco-friendly hardwax oils which contain no solvents, are food friendly, hardwearing and easily maintained.
You need to choose the size which will work both for your room and your practical needs. Meraki side tables are available in 300, 400, 500 and 600mm diameter, so you can make the most of the even the smallest spaces.
Whatever size you require you can feel rest assured that we’ll make it to both fit your space and be functional for your family.
As one of our newest items, our side tables are currently only available with oak crossed trapezium legs.
There will be many factors that go into selecting the right tonal option for your side table and when done correctly it’ll help pull everything together.
Considerations should be the physical space you have available, the natural light entering the room, other furniture tones, and the textures of any soft furnishings or accessories that’ll be sharing the same space.
The natural light that flows into your bedroom is the first step in determining which tonal options will work best. If your room is small and doesn’t get enough sunlight, consider lighter tones to lift the area, make it feel lighter and more spacious. Likewise, if your space is larger with lots of light, consider a darker tone with lighter walls and make it a statement piece.
The second step is to contemplate the colour scheme of the room. Think in terms of temperature.
Paint colours often give a feeling of warmth or cold. Current trends are using colours of whites, neutrals, greens, and blues. White & Blue can feel cooler in temperature and often lend themselves to darker brown furniture tones.
Greens feel a little warmer and work well with both neutrals and honey tones. Accessorised well neutral-coloured tables also work with neutral wall colours.
When selecting a tonal option its also good to have splashes of the same colour in the form of other items of free-standing furniture, shelving, and accessories to help pull everything together.
Avoid trying to match bedroom furniture or flooring as it’ll all blend and the table will appear lost. Consider opting for two tones darker or complimenting other items of furniture in the same space.
We pride ourselves on delivering bespoke side table at prices similar to what you’ll find on the High Street.
