Chinese Console Tables

MAKE A STRIKING STATEMENT WITH CHINESE CONSOLE TABLES

From altar tables to scholar tables, Chinese console tables are ideal for imbuing your interiors with a sense of sophistication and architectural intrigue. A diverse category that includes antique Chinese sofa tables hailing directly from China as well as replicas made in the United and States and elsewhere, Chinese console furniture spans the spectrum. Use a Chinese console in a traditional Asian-style room opposite elaborate Chinese room screens and shapely urns, or use it to build a layered visual narrative in a Palm Beach-inspired interior. Layered with wicker furniture and Hollywood Regency pagoda-style elements, a Chinese sofa table can make an arresting addition. A red or black Chinese lacquered console table could also be incorporated into a neutral-themed Mid-Century Modern interior. Playing opposite elements like grasscloth wallpaper, modernist Eames stools, fluffy Moroccan rugs, and dense, geometrically patterned textiles, Chinese consoles can provide an intriguing juxtaposition that still feels cohesive. Consider a Chinese lacquer console table in any room where you might be inclined to use a Ming-style coffee table. Chinese consoles possess similarly sleek silhouettes that can easily be partnered with just about any style. Consider the finish if you’re concerned about a Chinese console feeling discordant. Lacquer finishes are a good choice for Mid-Century Modern and Regency interiors, while rustic finishes can pair more seamlessly with organic modern or bohemian-style rooms.
