Coffee tables are a piece of furniture that combines function and form - from a living room focal point to a design statement in the interior. At Auctionet, we have a varied selection of tables that reflect different eras, styles and materials. Here you can find everything from coffee tables in wood, walnut and oak to retro coffee tables from the 1950s and 60s.
The history of the coffee table can be traced to the late 19th century, when it first became popular in English drawing rooms as a table for serving tea and coffee. During the 20th century, the coffee table evolved into a central piece of furniture in the living room, often designed by prominent designers.
Popular designers of coffee tables are for example Bruno Mathsson with his "Maria Flap" table and Severin Hansen with his elegant teak coffee tables. Past auctions at Auctionet have featured exclusive design tables, retro teak coffee tables, marble tables and classic models from the early 1900s to the present day.
