Mango Wood Coffee Tables

Why mango wood for your coffee table?

Mango is a hardwood and at the same time a by-product of fruit growing, which makes it a conscious, sustainable choice. The wood is sturdy and stands up to daily use, from feet on the table to a full tray. The unique grain pattern makes every coffee table slightly different, and with a little care the wood develops a beautiful patina over time. You get a table with a character of its own that only gets better with the years.

Which size coffee table suits your sofa?

A pleasing proportion is a coffee table that covers roughly two thirds of the length of your sofa. Leave 30 to 45 cm between the table and the sofa, so you have room for your legs while keeping everything within reach. Ideally the height sits around or just below the seat height of your sofa, usually between 35 and 45 cm. Measure your sofa first and you can choose the right size with confidence.

Round or rectangular, one or two?

A round coffee table is safe with children and works beautifully with a corner sofa. A rectangular table offers more surface area. A set of two tables at different heights is wonderfully flexible: push them together for a larger surface or move them apart as you please. Also look at storage, because some models have a handy lower shelf or drawers for magazines, remote controls and small items.

Caring for your mango wood coffee table

With a little attention your table stays beautiful for years. Use coasters, wipe up spills straight away and dust the top regularly. Treat the wood once or twice a year with furniture oil or wax to feed and protect it. Avoid bright, direct sunlight and do not place the table right next to a radiator, which prevents the wood from drying out and discolouring.

Combine with your other furniture

For a calm, coherent interior, combine the coffee table with furniture in the same wood, for example a matching mango wood TV unit or a mango wood dining table. If you prefer contrast and a more rugged look, take a look at our teak coffee tables. That way you tune the mood of your living room exactly to your taste.
