Style These Coffee Tables

Six ways to style the coffee table — the piece the whole living room gathers around. From a pastel-blue vintage army trunk to gold-and-glass Antoine, brass-and-marble rounds, and a Nantucket porch — every look, shoppable to the last hydrangea.

Gold & White Marble Nesting Coffee Tables

A pair of round nesting coffee tables with faux-white-marble tops and polished-gold frames floated in front of a slipcovered cream sofa — layered with a footed bowl of blue hydrangeas, a MacKenzie-Childs Royal Check mantel clock, a stack of coastal novels, and a hand-painted blue-and-white chinoiserie ginger jar. Behind it, a wall of arched pantry hutches holds ironstone mugs and blue-and-white porcelain.

Pastel Blue Military Chest Coffee Table

A reclaimed solid-wood army trunk painted soft hydrangea blue anchors a slipcovered white sofa piled with blue block-print and grain-sack pillows. A wicker tray of a blue-and-white ginger jar, a candle in a hurricane, and a stack of Nantucket books sits on top — with the NANTUCKET sign over the mantel and a wicker basket of blue hydrangeas by the hearth.

Alaterre Blue Distressed Reclaimed Wood Coffee Table

The Alaterre reclaimed-wood coffee table in soft weathered coastal blue with a natural plank lower shelf — styled with a wicker tray of white candles, a ship's-lantern vase of lily of the valley, and a stack of coastal art books. A slipcovered cream sofa is layered with blue floral, block-print, and cream boucle pillows, flanked by a pair of blue-and-white ginger jar lamps.

SAFAVIEH Antoine Gold & Glass Coffee Table

The slender SAFAVIEH Antoine rectangular coffee table with a clear glass top and a sculptural warm-gold iron base — layered with the MacKenzie-Childs Rosy Check pitcher of pink garden roses and hydrangeas, a pink-and-white checkered ice bucket of rosé, and a stack of Aerin and Aline Hicks coffee-table books. A slipcovered cream sofa is piled with pink chevron, blue block-print, and floral pillows.

Glass & Brass Round Coffee Table with Marble Shelf

A round two-tier coffee table with a clear glass top, warm brass legs, and a lower white marble shelf — layered with a footed vase of blue mophead hydrangeas, a MacKenzie-Childs Sterling Check candle, a coral branch, and stacks of Coastal Blues and Escape to the Beach. A slipcovered cream sectional is piled with blue floral and block-print pillows beneath a dune-and-sea painting, with a wicker Nantucket lightship-basket handbag by the door.

Glass & Brass Round with Blue Whale & Chinoiserie

A sunlit blue-and-white coastal living room with the Glass & Brass Round Coffee Table with Marble Shelf at the center — layered on a Safavieh Bella ivory damask wool rug. A cream chunky crochet round tray holds an ocean sea salt candle in a blue cut-glass jar with a bow and a strand of wood-bead garland, beside a pair of blue-and-white decoupage chinoiserie pillar candlesticks with ivory pillar candles. A hand-painted blue chinoiserie ginger jar from the Vase Set of 9 is stacked on Coastal and Ciao Bella decorative books and spills over with pink and cream garden florals, while the hand-carved Moby whale wall art rests along the marble shelf.

Alaterre Blue Reclaimed with NANTUCKET Sign & Chinoiserie Lamp

The Alaterre blue distressed reclaimed-wood coffee table styled up for full blue-and-white coastal charm — a hand-painted blue-and-white chinoiserie porcelain table lamp with an ivory bell shade anchors one end, while the hand-carved NANTUCKET sailboat sign lies across the front. A soft coastal-blue reclaimed-wood tray holds a tall white-and-gold-trim ginger jar vase spilling with white hydrangeas and cherry-blossom branches, a petite blue-and-white ginger jar of white blooms, and an Ocean Sea Salt candle in a hydrangea-blue cut-glass jar. The whole vignette floats on a hand-woven blue-and-white geometric cotton rug.

ACK Porch — Lobster Pillow & Weathered Teak

A shingle-style Nantucket porch above the beach — a weathered teak plank coffee table styled with a hurricane candle, a scallop-and-starfish plate, and a footed vase of blue hydrangeas. A cream wicker sofa is piled with a red Lobster outdoor pillow on cabana blue-and-cream stripes, blue floral chinoiserie, and grain-sack cushions — with the hand-painted ACK Scallop Heart Sign hung on the shingle wall.
