The vanity table, an oft-misunderstood furniture piece that deserves a place in every home. It’s far from the extravagant luxury that it is touted to be. Instead, it’s a perfect place to safely store your makeup, jewelry, and other drips and drabs.

That’s not all either. It’s a hub that will make the mundane morning makeup routine a more enjoyable one. When it’s an antique (and white) it doubles up as a great focal point too. Functional and aesthetic. What’s stopping you from getting one for your home?

Having said that, antique white vanity tables are available in a mind-boggling range of styles and sizes. Here are some tips to help you narrow down on the right one.

Where to place an antique white vanity table?

An antique white table can be placed just about anywhere from the bedroom to the bathroom if the space allows. Why it would look stunning even in a living room. If it has an integrated mirror, ensure that its placed in a well-lit place that allows you to spot those minute imperfections in makeup without squinting your eye.

What's the right size of vanity table for me?

Antique vanity tables are available in myriad sizes and shapes. The size that you select should depend on the place where you intend to place it and the things that you will store in it. You might be tempted to buy the largest, most ornate antique table with tons of drawers for storage. But it would be overkill at best, if you do not have enough stuff to store in it. Stick to what defines your needs.

What kind of stool will be a good match for an antique white vanity table?

Antique vanity tables rarely come with a matching stool or bench. So, if you got a pair, then consider yourself extremely lucky. In most cases though you will most likely be shopping separately for a chair to go with your table. Look for one that matches the finish and the style. It does not necessarily need to be an antique as long as the aesthetics match and it’s comfortable to sit on. The seat of the bench should ideally be 10-12” below the top of the table as it keeps things at eye level.

What style of vanity table should I choose?

Tables were one of the most popular furniture pieces in the art deco and art nouveau period and even in the times preceding those. And there are some stunning designs to pick from. The console table, for example, with its incredibly ornate leaf motifs, cabrioles and carvings make for an elegant addition to any decorum. If you prefer something exquisite, you’d want to consider a Demilune (half-moon) table that can be attached or placed against a wall. It’s a space saver and looks amazing.

What are antique vanity tables made of?

One of the perks of buying antique furniture is that they are all made of good quality hardwood. No man-made composites and other junk to be wary of. However, you need to be vigilant about the quality of the wood. A few scratches and dents shouldn’t scare you. In fact, they can help you negotiate the price further.

Having said that, look for overall quality. The frame, the drawers, the legs, everything needs to be in good condition. The last thing you want is to pay a steep price for something that demands extensive reworking.
