Where should I place a console table?

Console tables function best against flat walls in hallways, entrance passages, or beneath large wall mirrors where their decorative bases remain visible. Because many examples feature heavy marble tops, positioning them securely against a wall ensures stability during daily use.

What is the difference between a console and a centre table?

Console tables are built to stand against walls and often feature flat or unfinished backs designed to rest flush. Centre tables are freestanding pieces finished on all sides to sit in the middle of a room. Centre tables frequently showcase elaborate carving visible from every angle.

How do I identify an Anglo-Indian table?

Anglo-Indian tables typically utilise dense regional timbers like padauk or rosewood combined with deeply carved foliage and animal motifs. These pieces reflect British colonial design executed by traditional Indian woodcarvers. The resulting aesthetic blends European furniture forms with intricate indigenous craftsmanship.
