Restored Coffee Table

A coffee table can help anchor a living room, giving the seating area a clear focal point while providing a useful place for drinks, books and decorative pieces. The warm oak tones of this example make it well suited to both traditional and more relaxed interiors. This restored oak coffee table has a long rectangular top with softly rounded edges, supported by a frame with turned legs and a full-width lower shelf. Decorative floral motifs run along the front rail, adding interest without overwhelming the design, while the open shelf provides a convenient place for magazines, baskets or other living-room essentials.. The previous finish has been stripped back, and the table has then been protected with multiple coats of hard-wearing matte lacquer, creating a durable finish while bringing out the natural variation and grain of the oak. The table has a solid oak frame and lower shelf, with an oak-veneered top. With its generous proportions, useful lower shelf and traditional detailing, this table offers a good balance of display space and everyday practicality. Its restored oak finish gives it a warm, settled appearance that can sit comfortably at the centre of a living room. [dimensions][w]121[/w][h]49[/h][d]50[/d][/dimensions]
