Black Side Tables

What is a black side table and which materials are there

A side table is a compact table you set alongside something: next to the sofa, by an armchair or in a corner of the room. At Mokana you will find black side tables from minimalist models with clean lines to industrial versions with a robust metal frame. We work with materials such as solid oak, black metal and mango wood, so you can be sure of a table that not only looks good but is also sturdy. Metal gives a sleek, industrial look, while wood in a dark finish adds warmth.

Sizing advice: from laptop table to set

Our black side tables come in a variety of sizes, from small laptop tables for beside your sofa to sets of side tables and larger pieces that offer more storage. Choose the size on the basis of the room you have and what you want to put on it: a cup of coffee and a book need less surface than a lamp with some decoration. Measure the height of your armrest or sofa seat in advance, so the table sits at a comfortable working height.

Choosing shape and finish

Besides size, the shape sets the mood. We carry black side tables in a variety of shapes, including round and square. A round table looks softer and is welcome in small rooms because no sharp corners stick out. A square or rectangular model sits neatly against a sofa or wall. If you want extra function, there are versions with a lower shelf or storage, handy for keeping magazines or a remote control out of sight.

Caring for a black side table

A black side table is easy to keep looking good. Dust the top regularly with a dry or slightly damp cloth. On a metal frame, fingerprints show less on a matt powder coat than on high gloss. Treat wooden models now and then with a suitable care product to feed the wood. Place hot cups or damp glasses on a coaster where possible, which prevents rings.

What else goes with a black side table

A black side table rarely stands alone. Combine it with a sofa or armchair in a calm shade and the table becomes a subtle accent.

If you are unsure about the right combination for your interior, our advisers are happy to think along with no obligation.
