Funky Hourglass Accent Tables and Stools ~ Contemporary Side Tables ~ Modern Accent Table Furniture Perfect for the Home

Accent tables, whether large or small can really make an impressive impact in a room. Their very name suggests the wide range of uses and locations an accent table can have in the home interior environment. These range from acting as stools during a social gathering to being side tables next to a sofa, bed or chest of drawers. Locations in the house can include the living room and dining room through to the hallway and bedrooms. These versatile little tables come in a number of modern and contemporary forms which I have showcased further down the page.

A good accent table which matches the decor of your room can also act as a decorative piece of furniture. Vases of flowers, sculptures or a pile of books can be placed on top, or with a good looking side table, nothing at all. Place the accent table in the center of the room to act as a focal point. As well as this, they can also act as modern stools that can be used to bring a gathering of people closer to together. Most are light and easy to move, perfect for a social gathering where people want to maintain eye contact and often close proximity.

The hourglass stools and accent tables provide a trendy, hip and cool look to a modern and contemporary interior. The guests mentioned above, and more importantly, you and your family members, will gain an ambiance of sophistication reminiscent of a wine bar and Jazz club style of interior. I personally love these hourglass accent tables being a great Jazz fan myself. They also have an air of romance to them with their ever so understated "lovers in an embrace" silhouette.

This yellow side table or stool is a very popular item of furniture. It looks fantastic when grouped together with other items of furniture to form a coffee table. (As you can see in the photo above). You could also use it as a minimalist night stand as well.
