Product details
A side table with genuine marble and hand-finished metal brings natural stone's permanence and warmth to tight corners, reading nooks, and bedside spaces without the footprint of larger accent furniture. The Furniture Classics Andrews Round Marble Side Table with Brushed Gold Metal Base, available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping, pairs a 16-inch round marble top with slender hand-hammered metal legs finished in brushed gold -- handcrafted in India and shipped fully assembled. A side table is a compact surface designed to sit beside seating or a bed, typically 22 to 26 inches tall, to hold lamps, drinks, books, or decorative objects while contributing texture, color, and material contrast to a room.

Why a Round Marble Side Table from Sideboards and Things?
At 23 inches tall, this piece aligns with most sofa arms and upholstered chair heights, keeping a table lamp, water glass, or stack of books within easy reach while you're seated. The 16-inch round top fits between a lounge chair and a wall, beside a bed in a compact bedroom, or in a foyer corner anchored by one of our console tables -- the circular form softens rectangular furniture and hard angles without sacrificing surface area. Each marble top carries organic veining and color variation unique to the slab it was cut from, and the hand-hammered brushed gold base displays the subtle texture left by craftsmen's tools, ensuring no two tables are identical. Pair it with pieces from our side tables collection or alongside warm wood tones and upholstered seating in cream, sage, or taupe to let the marble's natural pattern and the gold's warmth stand out.
How Do You Style a Marble and Metal Side Table?
Layer a small sculptural lamp with a linen or fabric shade, a ceramic or turned-wood catchall for remotes or jewelry, and a single hardcover book or slim stack on the marble surface to create varying heights and functional zones. The brushed gold base pairs naturally with brass hardware on nearby coffee tables, bronze picture frames, and warm metal finishes in lighting and cabinet pulls. In a bedroom, place the table beside an upholstered headboard and top it with a clock, water carafe, and a single-stem vase -- the round shape and compact footprint keep the bedside area open and uncluttered. The marble's cool surface contrasts beautifully with warm textiles like wool throws, linen cushions, and woven baskets, grounding decorative objects while the stone's natural veining provides organic movement.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between a side table and an end table?
- The terms are interchangeable; both describe a small table placed beside seating, though "end table" often refers to a pair flanking a sofa.
- What height should a side table be next to a sofa?
- A side table should stand within two inches of the sofa arm's height -- typically 22 to 26 inches -- so you can reach items comfortably while seated; the Andrews stands 23 inches tall.
- How do I care for a marble and metal side table?
- Wipe the marble top with a damp cloth and dry the metal base immediately after any spills to preserve the brushed gold finish and prevent water spots.
- Does the Andrews side table arrive assembled?
- Yes, this table ships fully assembled and ready to use; standard curbside delivery is free to the continental United States.
- What size side table works next to a chair?
- Choose a side table no taller than the chair's arm and with a top diameter or width between 12 and 20 inches; the Andrews's 16-inch round top keeps drinks and books within reach without crowding the chair.
- Where is the Andrews side table made?
- This table is handcrafted in India, where artisans hand-hammer the metal base and finish it in brushed gold, ensuring each piece carries the marks of its making.
