Edith Round Wooden Side Table - Grey

Edith is a round side table with a fluted base: two panels of close-set vertical ribs that cross beneath a plain circular top. It stands 50cm tall and measures 40cm across, so it asks for very little floor space while still giving you a useful surface beside a chair. It is made from fir and MDF in equal parts, finished in grey, and weighs 7.45KG, which makes it easy to lift and move when you rearrange a room.

We see it beside an armchair or at the end of a sofa in a living room. It also works on its own by a window as a stand for a vase or a sculptural bowl, where the ribbed base does some of the decorating for you. The maximum load is 10KG, so it is made for lighter pieces: a plant, a vase, a few books or a small table lamp. Because the base is built from two crossing panels rather than four slim legs, it reads as a solid fluted column from most angles. That suits a calm, pared-back room just as well as one full of pattern and texture.

The table combines fir and MDF, with the legs made of fir, a softwood, and the finish is a water based lacquer. Care is simple: wipe it clean with a moist cloth. The maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download. For styling, keep the top fairly clear so the round outline and the grooves stay the focus; one vase with a few stems, or a textured bowl, is usually enough. Grey sits easily with wooden floors, woven cane and soft upholstery, and it gives a light room a little grounding without making it feel heavy.
