Marble Effect Coffee Tables

Styling a marble effect coffee table offers a chic foundation for your living room. Begin by decluttering the surface, then consider these styling approaches: Create "Styled Corners" by decorating each corner with objects of varying heights and textures, like a small plant, a stack of books, and a decorative bowl. For smaller items, use a tray to "Contain your Groupings," adding visual impact and preventing a cluttered look. If your table is smaller or already features prominent furniture nearby, embrace the "Less is More" approach with a simple vase of flowers or a curated stack of books. For longer tables, "The Line Up" technique works well; arrange similar items in a line, such as small stacks of books or decorative objects, ensuring colour coordination or a shared theme. These techniques will enhance your marble effect coffee table's elegance and create a sophisticated focal point. For more information visit our blog post.

Choosing the right coffee table size depends on your sofa and living room dimensions. A good rule of thumb is to select a coffee table that's roughly two-thirds the length of your sofa. For our marble effect coffee tables, widths range from 80cm to 120cm, offering options for various sofa sizes. The standard height for a coffee table is between 40cm and 43cm, ensuring it's level with your sofa seat cushions for comfortable use. In terms of depth, our tables range from 60cm to 80cm, providing ample surface space without overwhelming the room. Always check the product page for specific measurements and dimensions, as some products may differ.

The ideal rug size for a marble-effect coffee table depends on the table's dimensions and the surrounding furniture. A good rule of thumb is to choose a rug large enough so that the front legs of any sofas or chairs around the coffee table are on the rug. This creates a visually appealing and grounded seating area. For smaller coffee tables, a rug that extends about 45-60cm beyond each side of the table usually works well. Larger coffee tables may require a rug that extends 60-90cm beyond the edges. Ultimately, the goal is to create a sense of balance and proportion in the room. Consider using painter's tape to mark out potential rug sizes on the floor to visualise the space before making a purchase.

Caring for your marble effect ceramic coffee table is easy. Our ceramic is heat, scratch and chip resistant, making it perfect for everyday use. For daily cleaning, simply wipe down the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish. For tougher marks, a mild detergent solution and warm water can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth. Dry the surface thoroughly to prevent watermarks. Remember, coasters and placemats are always a good idea for added protection against spills and heat. Always check the product's page for specific care and cleaning recommendations, as some materials may have special requirements.
