Accent end tables are small-scale furniture with outsized decorative power. Whether you’re curating an eclectic corner or adding contrast to a modern setting, explore our full end tables collection to discover timeless and expressive designs that complement your space.
These tables are meant to catch the eye—through form, color, or material. Unlike standard utility pieces, accent tables act as design punctuation: unexpected silhouettes, bold finishes, or artisanal textures that transform how a room feels. They're where function meets flourish.

While compact in scale, these tables offer opportunities for bold design gestures. A brass pedestal base, a lacquered top, or a hand-carved detail can redefine the energy of an entire room. Perfect next to a reading chair, flanking a low-profile sofa, or filling a forgotten corner, these tables do more than support a lamp—they define space.
Accent tables can introduce unexpected color, contrast in materials, or an extra layer of texture. Think beyond neutral: explore marble, terrazzo, painted finishes, or bold geometry to create rhythm and interest in the space.

Styling an accent end table is an opportunity to inject personality. Go bold with one statement piece—a colorful ceramic vase, a stack of vintage books, or a sculptural object—and leave negative space around it. The goal isn’t to fill the surface, but to frame it like a stage.
Accent tables also work well in pairs, especially when they differ slightly in shape or height. For a cohesive visual flow, echo a material or tone from elsewhere in the room—like repeating a matte black element or complementing a textile’s hue. These tables are design tools: small, expressive, and rich in impact.
