Glass Side Tables

A glass side table is a small accent table with a glass top, most of them tempered, that holds a lamp or a drink without adding visual weight. These run 13.8 to 19.7 inches across and 17.3 to 23.6 inches tall, from black glass on gold or silver frames to mirrored crystal tables and outdoor wicker and rope styles.

Round glass side table styles

Most tables here are round, which softens a corner and leaves no edge to catch a knee. Black tempered glass sits on a gold or silver metal frame with a second shelf below, mirrored silver tables set crystals inside the top for a little sparkle, and cream or black vegan leather drums hide a storage compartment under a tempered glass top.

Gold and glass side table or black glass side table

The frame finish sets the tone. Black glass on a gold frame reads warm and modern beside a Nordic or mid-century sofa, while black glass on silver feels cooler and more graphic. Both stand 22 inches tall on a 16.9 inch round top, a comfortable match for most sofa arms.

Glass side tables for living room storage

Small tables still hold a lot. The two-tier tables keep a book or remote on a lower shelf, and the vegan leather drum tables open to hide magazines and chargers inside. The 19.7 inch drums stand 17.7 inches tall, low enough for a lounge chair, and the black drum arrives fully assembled. Pair two matching tables to frame a sofa, or use one beside a bed as a compact nightstand.

Glass patio side table options

Outdoors, a white resin wicker table shows its sunburst weave through a clear tempered glass top, a powder-coated steel table with woven rope accents stands 20.1 inches tall beside a lounge chair, and a vintage yellow table rests a round glass top on a pineapple-shaped base.

Glass top side tables care

Wipe glass with a soft cloth and glass cleaner, use coasters to prevent rings, and lift the table rather than drag it so the frame stays square. Check the glass edges now and then for chips. Bring outdoor tables inside or cover them in harsh weather.

Frequently asked questions

What is a side table?
A side table is a small table that sits beside a sofa, chair or bed to hold a lamp, a drink, a book or a phone within reach. A glass side table does the same job with a see-through or reflective top that keeps a small room feeling open. The glass side tables here run 13.8 to 19.7 inches across.
How tall should a side table be?
A side table should be about level with the arm of the sofa or chair beside it, or up to 2 inches lower, which usually means 20 to 26 inches tall. The glass side tables here stand 17.3 to 23.6 inches tall, so the lower drums suit low lounge chairs and the 22 inch tables suit most sofas.
How do you decorate a side table?
Decorate a side table with one tall piece, such as a lamp or vase, plus one or two low items like a small stack of books or a tray, and leave room for a drink. On a glass side table, keep it light so the glass stays visible, and use the lower shelf for anything bulky.
What should you put on a side table?
A lamp, a coaster, a small plant and a book or two are the classic things to put on a side table, with space left for a cup or a phone. The two-tier glass tables here add a lower shelf for remotes and magazines, and the storage drums hide chargers and clutter inside.
How do you style a side table in a living room?
Style a living room side table by matching its height to the sofa arm, then picking a finish that echoes something else in the room, such as gold frames with brass lamps or black glass with dark wood. Keep a clear spot for drinks, and pair two matching tables to frame a sofa.
