The Wendell is classic midcentury modern thinking—sleek, rounded geometries, with plenty of storage space in the central hollow compartment for practical use. The walnut table is supported by angled spindle legs that are easy to clean under and allow air to flow beneath, for a look that’s both fresh and retro.

coffee tables + books that look great on ‘em
Is there anything more functional than a coffee table? Typically low-slung and at seat height, it’s the perfect piece to show off décor, collect TV remotes, and, of course, hold your coffee (or martini) while you read the paper or catch up with a friend. So-called “coffee table books” also claim their space on this table. Too beautiful to be relegated to a shelf, they demand their due as pieces of art. Here are a few tables we love, and books that would great on each table. Mix and match as you like!
