Kensington Townhouse Bamboo Design Side Table

Mirrored glass has an almost magical quality in a room: it bounces light, makes corners feel less enclosed, and adds visual interest without visual weight. This side table puts that quality to work across two round surfaces, both reflecting the room back at itself in a way that makes the piece feel larger than it is.

The gold iron frame draws on bamboo detailing for its form — legs that flare slightly at the foot, each adorned with ring clasps that reference the knotted joints of bamboo cane. It’s a botanical detail rendered in metal, which gives the table a touch of the exotic that sits well in rooms with a more maximalist or layered sensibility.

Position it beside an armchair or sofa as a lamp table or drinks surface, or use it in pairs flanking a statement mirror or piece of artwork. The gold and mirrored combination works particularly well in rooms with dark or jewel-toned walls, where the reflective surfaces really come into their own.
