No living room is complete without a table, and a Japanese coffee table will give your space an elegant and refined feel. Usually designed to be lower than a regular coffee table so you can eat whilst sitting on the floor, Asian coffee tables are simple yet chic. The majority are made of wood for a hint of traditional culture, but that doesn’t mean they all have the same shape, and we’ve selected a few of the best down below.
