Tips For Choosing Between Glass, Wooden, And Marble Coffee Tables

Choosing between glass, wooden, and marble coffee tables can feel like a tricky decision, but it’s worth considering the style and aesthetic you’re seeking for your lounge room. While glass is sleek, marble makes for a bold addition, and wood can offer a sense of warmth. Each has their unique qualities, so let’s take a look at some of the considerations you should take into account when choosing.

A glass coffee table offers a contemporary and modern feel to a room, and can also make a small space feel larger, given its transparency. They can also help to lighten a dark room by reflection light. You lifestyle should be taken into account as well. If you have children who tend to rough house, glass can be a fragile material and may not be the best decision.

A marble table, however, is a sturdier option and lends a more traditional aesthetic to a room. No two tables are alike, as marble’s natural formation makes for different patterns and marbling. Similarly, marble is easier to clean than glass, and is guaranteed to last for decades, making it a more durable purchase.

If you’re leaning toward a wooden table, a great option is to select a table made of a blend of finishes. Each type of wood offers a different grain, pattern and shade. Mixing them up to combine them is a good way to make use of the different hues and textures. You could also combine different woods and metals to accentuate the colours and design, offering a blend of natural and rustic meets modern and industrial.
