The Collection

Wood Sofa Arm Tables

A sofa arm table gives a mug, a book and a phone somewhere to sit when the room has no floor space for a side table. All of them are small, solid hardwood, and cut once your order is placed.

Both sizes stand 18 inches tall and 10 deep, at either 20 or 24 wide. The 20 suits a compact loveseat arm. The 24 spans the deeper arm of a sectional. Finishes listed are Black, Oak, Brown and Walnut. The clip-on style hooks over the arm and lifts away when you want the sofa back. The freestanding piece stands on the floor and slides in beside the arm, which is the answer for a rounded or very wide arm. The tray-top version has a raised lip, worth having when drinks go on it.

Measure the sofa arm first, since clip-on styles fit a set width range. Pieces ship in parts to keep the edges clean in transit, with instructions packed alongside. Delivery costs nothing anywhere in the world and returns are open for 30 days.

Before you buy

Wood Sofa Arm Tables: questions, answered

Is a sofa arm table from this collection really solid wood?+

Every sofa arm table here is a small solid wood table sized to sit on or beside a sofa arm. There is no veneer, no MDF and no particle board anywhere in the build.

What sizes are available?+

Most pieces in this collection come in several sizes, with exact dimensions and a price for each size on the product page. Measure the spot in your living room or lounge first, then check the largest dimension against it before you commit.

Anything I should plan for before ordering?+

Clip-on styles fit a specific arm width range. Measure your sofa arm before ordering.

How does delivery work for a sofa arm table?+

Every piece is made to order and built by hand. Delivery is free worldwide, and tracking is emailed the moment your piece ships.

What if it does not work in my space?+

You have 30 days to decide. If the piece is not right, you have 30 days to return it for a full refund, with clear instructions from our team. For oversized pieces we can arrange home collection. Every sofa arm table also carries a 10 year structural warranty.

How do I care for the wood?+

Dust with a soft cloth and condition the wood with a light coat of furniture oil once or twice a year. Solid wood wears in over time, and small marks can usually be buffed out.

Every sofa arm table in this collection starts as solid hardwood and stays that way from surface to core. Each piece is a small solid wood table sized to sit on or beside a sofa arm, joined by hand and finished to bring out the wood’s natural warmth, so it wears in over the years instead of wearing out.

How to choose the right sofa arm table

Fit the room first

Most pieces in this collection are sized for the living room or lounge. Measure the wall or floor space you can give the piece, then check it against the largest dimension listed on the product page. Each size shows its own price, so you can compare before you commit.

Worth knowing before you order

Clip-on styles fit a specific arm width range. Measure your sofa arm before ordering.

Care takes one line

Dust with a soft cloth and condition the wood with a light coat of furniture oil once or twice a year. Small marks buff out over a weekend, and the surface only looks better for the use.

Styles in this collection

The designs run from clip-on arm table to freestanding side piece and tray-top pieces, all cut from the same solid stock. If you are building the whole room around wood, the same grain and construction run through our wood lamps and wood record player stands, so the space can carry one idea from wall to wall.

What solid wood gives you that veneer cannot

A veneer piece is a photograph of wood glued over particle board. It looks right for a year or two, then an edge lifts and there is nothing underneath worth repairing. Solid wood is the same material at the surface and at the core:

  • Scratches and rings sand or buff out, because the grain continues below the surface.
  • Joinery is cut into the wood itself, so the structure tightens with care instead of loosening with age.
  • The piece can be refinished decades from now and come back looking new.
