Ellar Round Side Table - Blue

Our Ellar side table is a small round table on a single beaded column: a flat top 40cm across, a stem of stacked rounded beads that swells and narrows like a string of pearls, and a stepped round base in two tiers. It stands 61cm tall and is finished all over in blue, lacquered to a high gloss, so the colour carries from the top down to the floor. The table is made of 80% MDF and 20% rubberwood, and at 4.5KG it is light enough to lift and carry to wherever it is needed.

At 61cm tall the top sits within easy reach from a sofa or armchair, which makes it a natural partner for a reading chair in the living room or the end of a sofa. In a bedroom it works as a bedside table, and in a hallway or on a landing it gives a quiet spot for keys, post or a trailing plant. A top 40cm across is sized for the few things you want close by: a table lamp, a short stack of books, a pot plant or a small vase of flowers. The strong blue suits a colourful room full of pattern, and it is just as happy as the one bright note in a calm, neutral space.

The high gloss lacquer gives a smooth, reflective surface rather than a matt one, and it keeps the blue looking deep and even across the top, column and base. MDF is a dense, uniform board that takes a lacquer finish smoothly, and rubberwood is a close-grained hardwood, so the table brings together a smooth engineered board and real timber. The maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download. For styling, place it beside a velvet or textured armchair, where the gloss and the rounded beads of the column stand out against the fabric, and keep the top clear so its round outline shows.
