Description
This console table brings woven rattan and a solid wood frame together in one grounded piece. The rattan panels are worked across the front in a tight, ordered weave, while the wood structure carries the weight and gives the table its clean rectangular form. Finished in a soft grey tone, the surface reads as calm and understated rather than showy, letting the natural texture of the rattan do the talking. Standing 80cm tall with a width of 80cm and a depth of 35cm, it sits neatly against a wall without eating into floor space.
Console tables like this one earn their place in a hallway, where keys, post and a lamp find a natural home on the top. It also works behind a sofa in an open-plan room, or under a mirror in an entrance to give arriving guests a first point of order. We like it styled simply with a stack of books, a small vase and a trailing plant, keeping the surface uncluttered so the weave stays the focus. The grey finish pairs easily with pale walls, natural linen and warmer wood tones elsewhere in the room.
Practicality is built into the shape. The slim 35cm depth keeps walkways clear, and the wood frame gives the piece the sturdiness you want from a surface used every day. Wipe the top with a soft, dry cloth to lift dust, and use a slightly damp cloth for marks before drying straight away. Keep the rattan out of direct damp and strong sun so the weave and grey tone hold their look over time.

Frequently Asked
Is the rattan hard-wearing?
Yes. The rattan is woven over a solid wood frame, so the panels are supported and the structure stays firm through daily use.
Where does this piece work best?
It suits a hallway, behind a sofa or under a mirror in an entrance. The slim depth keeps it useful in narrow spaces.
Will the size fit a narrow hallway?
At 35cm deep it stays close to the wall, while the 80cm width and 80cm height give a practical surface without crowding a passage.
How do I keep it clean?
Dust the top and weave with a soft dry cloth. For marks, use a barely damp cloth and dry at once, keeping the rattan away from damp and direct sun.
Does the grey suit other wood tones?
The soft grey finish sits comfortably alongside warmer woods, pale walls and natural linen, so it blends into most schemes.
