Stone coffee tables for the living room, made in Sweden
The coffee table is where the evening lands: a cup, a book, feet up after a long day. Ours are made in our own factory in Sweden, with sintered stone tops on slim welded steel, rectangular Anton or round Leo, on their own or as a nest. Choose one level with your sofa seat, or a few centimetres lower. Every table carries a 10-year warranty.

Guides and answers
In-depth guides, one question each, and quick answers to the most common questions.

- Coffee Tables for a Small Living RoomLeave 40 to 45 cm of walk space; Anton Medium or Leo Small is the small-room buy.
- Round Coffee Table: When a Circle Beats a RectangleBuy a round coffee table when people walk around it; Leo Medium at 80 cm is the default.
- Nest of Tables: When Two Tables Beat OneA nest is a second coffee table that stores as one footprint; buy it if that second top comes out.

Materials & style
- Stone Coffee Table: What Sintered Stone Actually IsSintered stone, not marble: wipe it, do not seal it, pick Sabbia, Grigio or Grafite.
- How to Clean a Stone Coffee TableWipe sintered stone with a damp cloth; do not seal it and do not use marble cleaner.
- Oak Coffee Table: Solid Oak, Round or a NestLeo is a solid oak coffee table in ø70, ø80 or ø95 cm, not a veneer top.
- Black Coffee Table: Frame and Stone Colours That WorkPick a frame that contrasts with your floor, then a stone that suits your sofa: black with Sabbia works in most rooms.
- How to Choose a Coffee Table That You Will Actually UseHeight from the sofa seat, length about two thirds of the sofa, a nest only if you will use the second table.
- How to Style a Coffee Table Without Turning It Into a DisplayLeave a cup landing, add at most a tray, a book and one low object, and pull the nest instead of piling the top.
- Scandinavian Coffee Table: What Makes One NordicA Scandinavian coffee table is low, plain and honestly built: Anton and Leo are welded in Sweden with stone or oak tops.
- Marble vs Dekton: Why Our Stone Tops Are Not MarbleWe make no marble: our stone tops are Dekton sintered stone, which does not etch, stain or need sealing.
- Coffee Table Materials: Oak, Stone, Glass and Metal ComparedSintered stone for daily life, oak for warmth with coasters, glass only if you accept prints, and a welded frame under all of it.
- Walnut or Dark Oak: What to Buy When You Want a Dark Wood TableWe make no walnut: for a dark wood table, choose solid oak in dark oak or black oak.
7 questions
Frequently asked questions
How high should a coffee table be?
Level with your sofa seat, or 2 to 5 cm lower. Most sofa seats are 40 to 45 cm, so look for a table of about 40 to 48 cm. Ours run from 41.5 cm (Anton Small) to 52.5 cm (Leo Large).
What size coffee table for a small living room?
One that leaves 40 to 45 cm between sofa and table. In our range that is Anton Small or Medium, Leo Small, or a nest you keep closed.
What is a nest of tables?
Two or three coffee tables that store as one. Anton's smaller table slides fully under the larger; Leo's round tops overlap by about 40 percent, because each size stands at its own height.
Is the top real stone?
Yes. It is Dekton sintered stone, a mineral slab that resists heat, stains and scratches and never needs sealing. Choose Sabbia (beige), Grigio (grey) or Grafite (dark grey).
Round or rectangular coffee table?
Round if people walk around it or the room is small: Leo is 70, 80 or 95 cm across. Rectangular in front of a long sofa: Anton is 65 x 55, 70 x 60 or 100 x 75 cm.
How do I clean a stone coffee table?
Wipe it with a damp cloth and a little mild soap. No sealing, no special cleaner, no abrasive pads and no bleach.
Do you make an oak coffee table?
Yes. Leo can be made with a solid oak top through Design Your Own, in the same three sizes. The tables in this collection have stone tops.
Find your table
Which coffee table suits your sofa?
Two questions to the height and shape that fit your living room.
How high is your sofa seat?
Prefer to measure yourself? Read the height guideBefore you choose
Five things worth knowing.
Height, size, nest, round or rectangular and stone.
How high should a coffee table be?
Level with your sofa seat, or a few centimetres lower.
Measure from the floor to the top of the seat cushion with nobody on it, and aim for that height or 2 to 5 cm below. For a 40 to 45 cm sofa, Anton Small or Medium (41.5 or 43.5 cm) or Leo Small (42.5 cm) sit right. Leo Large, at 52.5 cm, is the tall one: best as the outer table in a nest or beside a high seat.
| Table | Top | Height |
|---|---|---|
| Anton Small | 65 x 55 cm | 41.5 cm |
| Anton Medium | 70 x 60 cm | 43.5 cm |
| Anton Large | 100 x 75 cm | 47.5 cm |
| Leo Small | 70 cm round | 42.5 cm |
| Leo Medium | 80 cm round | 47.5 cm |
| Leo Large | 95 cm round | 52.5 cm |
What size for your living room?
Leave 40 to 45 cm between sofa and table.
Walk space decides the size, not the width of the room. Keep 40 to 45 cm between sofa and table so you can pass and sit down, and let the table run about two thirds of the sofa. Anton is 65, 70 or 100 cm long; Leo is 70, 80 or 95 cm across. In front of a compact two-seater, 100 cm is usually too much.

One table or a nest?
Two or three tables that store as one.
Choose a nest if you would use the second surface most weeks: a cup by the armchair, a tray when friends come round. If it would stay closed all year, choose the single size that meets your sofa. Anton Small set is a medium and a small table; Leo Medium set is 80 and 70 cm; Leo Large set has all three rounds.
Round or rectangular?
Round where people walk around it. Rectangular along a long sofa.
A round table has no corners to catch a knee, so it suits a room you cross on every side. A rectangle follows the line of a long sofa and holds a tray and a book side by side. Leo is our round table and Anton our rectangle; both come on their own or as a nest.
- Round

- Rectangular
- Anton65 x 55, 70 x 60 or 100 x 75 cm
Why sintered stone?
It takes heat, stains and scratches in its stride.
Dekton is a sintered mineral slab, so a hot mug, a wet glass or a set of keys leaves no mark. It comes in Sabbia (beige), Grigio (grey) and Grafite (dark grey), on a black welded steel frame. Order samples to see the three stones in your own light before you choose.
