Side table BAROCCO sculpted nickel-plated aluminium KARE Design

The Side table BAROCCO sculpted nickel-plated aluminium KARE Design brings a theatrical, almost ceremonial touch to compact living spaces. In a living room corner beside a velvet armchair, it becomes a gleaming perch for a drink, a candle or a favourite object. Its tall, turned pedestal and small circular top slip in exactly where a full-size side table would feel bulky. The polished nickel-like finish bounces light around, making the table read as a bright accent rather than a heavy piece of furniture. Whether you place it next to a sofa, at the end of a hallway or beside a reading chair, its slender outline and ornate lower feet create a sense of occasion. This piece is ideal for anyone who wants a sculptural detail that feels both classic and contemporary, and who needs a practical yet compact surface that easily finds its place at home.

Visual design and style

The BAROCCO side table stands out through its striking pedestal silhouette. The small, round top sits like a polished disc on a tall, tapered stem, giving the whole piece a graceful, upward movement. The pedestal itself is turned with successive curves and narrowings, reminiscent of antique candlesticks or carved baluster columns, which instantly adds character. Below, three ornate feet unfurl in soft, flowing curves, almost like stylised leaves resting on the floor. The bright nickel-plated aluminium finish enhances every contour, catching highlights along the edges and creating subtle reflections on the underside of the top. From a distance, the table reads as a slender metallic figure; up close, the sculpted details reward the eye without feeling overloaded. Proportionally, the compact diameter and 59 cm height create an elegant vertical accent perfectly suited to flanking seating or marking a transition between different zones of the room.

Why choose this piece

• Polished nickel-plated finish reflects surrounding light, adding a bright, jewel-like accent that visually lightens darker corners of the room.
• Sculpted pedestal with baroque inspiration introduces decorative richness while keeping the footprint small and easy to integrate in tight layouts.
• Compact round top is ideal for a glass, book or small lamp, providing just enough surface exactly where you need it.
• Three gracefully curved feet create graphic interest on rugs or bare floors, subtly anchoring the table without appearing visually heavy.
• Slender 59 cm height aligns well with sofas and armchairs, keeping essentials comfortably within reach while seated and relaxing.

Where to place it

With its 59 cm height and 27 cm top diameter, the BAROCCO side table is designed for spots where space is precious but style matters. Place it at the end of a slim sofa to hold a reading lamp, keeping enough clearance between the tripod base and your main coffee table for easy circulation. Next to a statement armchair, it becomes a personal landing zone for a drink and book, defining a dedicated reading nook without additional furniture. In a narrow hallway, it can act as a mini pedestal for a vase, visually punctuating the passage.

In a bedroom, use one on a single side of the bed for an asymmetric, boutique-hotel feel when a classic bedside cabinet would feel too massive.

Long-term decorative coherence

The BAROCCO side table’s nickel-plated aluminium finish offers a versatile neutral base that adapts readily to shifts in your interior over time. Pair it with soft textiles like velvet, bouclé or thick cotton to temper the metallic shine and create a tactile contrast. Warm woods, from honey oak to deep walnut, sit beautifully beside the cool silver tone, helping the table stand out as an intentional accent. Wall colours also shape its character: deep blues and forest greens emphasise its baroque spirit, while pale greys and off-whites highlight its clean, reflective surface. Because of its compact footprint, you can easily move it from living room to hallway or bedroom when rearranging, using its sculptural silhouette as a recurring visual thread. Echo the metal finish with picture frames, lamp bases or small trays to create discreet links between different corners, ensuring enduring visual harmony.
