Madras Reclaimed Teak Console Table

Styling Stories

The Madras Reclaimed Teak Console Table loves to play muse - its timeworn grain and airy A-frame make even the simplest objects feel curated. Use these ideas as a starting point and layer to taste.

1) Entryway Welcome Moment

• Anchor with a statement mirror or vibrant artwork at least 2/3 the table width.
• Top shelf: a low lamp, a catch-all bowl, and one sculptural piece (cloche, vase, or candle trio).
• Lower shelf: two woven baskets for shoes or scarves - there’s 21" between shelves for tall storage.
• Finish with a small fern or trailing pothos to echo the table’s organic texture.

2) Sofa-Back, Living Room Layering

• Float behind a sofa - the table’s 35.5" W x 20" D x 32" H silhouette keeps the look light.
• Stack art books to build height, then balance with a ceramic bowl and a tapered lamp.
• Style the bottom shelf with a folded throw and a lidded basket to hide remotes and chargers.

3) Bedroom Writing Nook

• Pair with a slender chair; the 26" leg span at the bottom leaves comfortable knee room.
• Layer a linen runner across the top, add a petite task lamp and your favorite notebook.
• Stash journals or a box of stationery on the lower tier; the floor-to-bottom clearance is 8.5" for easy cleaning.

4) Dining Server, Effortless Host

• Top shelf: cake stand, carafe, and a cluster of small plates for grab-and-gather moments.
• Bottom shelf: rattan bins for linens and flatware - there’s ample 21" from bottom to top for taller pitchers.
• Pop a citrus bowl or fresh eucalyptus to keep it feeling lively between dinners.

5) Plant Gallery

• Think “mini conservatory”: a trio of heights - one tall palm, mid fern, low trailing ivy.
• Use saucers or trays to protect the teak; mix clay, matte ceramic, and glass for texture play.
• Leave negative space so the wood grain can breathe (and be admired).

Style Recipes

• Modern Boho: botanical print, brass lamp, beaded garland, and a fringed basket below.
• Coastal Calm: pale ceramics, sea-glass hues, coral (faux or found), and striped throws.
• Farmhouse Refined: stoneware jugs, black iron frame, and a stack of well-loved cookbooks.
• Minimal Luxe: one statement vase, one art book stack, and a slim linen runner - nothing extra.

Quick Tips

• Aim for a 1:1:1 formula on top—one tall, one mid, one low element - to keep the eye moving.
• Vary materials (glass, ceramic, woven) against the teak to add depth without clutter.
• Use felt pads and trays to protect the reclaimed wood; wipe with a soft, dry cloth.
• Allow a few inches of wall “air” around artwork (the table is 35.5" wide; art at ~24–30" works beautifully).
