Things to Covet

Not to be underestimated, here’s where side tables take centre stage

1. EXTO side table by Kiki van Eijk

This piece, designed by Kiki van Eijk, celebrates refined Italian craftsmanship, seamlessly blending contemporary sculptural forms, clean lines and a vibrant green hue. Its angular silhouette and precise proportions are a huge draw. The pieces embody van Eijk’s core design principle: crafting furniture pieces that transcend
mere functionality to become deeply personal, emotionally resonant objects that also enrich spaces aesthetically. 

2. Rock Candy side table by Ina Rinderknecht

Celebrated Swiss architect and interior designer Ina Rinderknecht has introduced a new addition to her Childhood Memories of Asia furniture collection. Inspired the designer’s own childhood experiences in Asia, the Rock Candy side table captures the delicate balance between memory and artistry. Available in two sizes and serene white and blue colourways, the ethereal onyx tabletop sits gracefully on a minimalist bronze base, anchored by weighted blocks of white marble. The blocks are artfully shaped to evoke the chiming bells of Buddhist temples, offering a subtle yet profound spiritual connection.

3. BENSON by Rodolfo Dordoni for Minotti

Defined by overlapping shapes and a masterful blend of luxury materials, BENSON’s sculpted form is accentuated by the richness of wood and the luminous contrast of metal, creating a striking visual balance. Designed to complement a sofa or armchair, this 46cm- diameter, 38cm-high side table is available in two refined combinations: one features a glossy ebony base paired with a satin-finished bronze metal top, while the other offers a glossy lacquered Moka base with a glossy gold-finished top. Each version highlights the table’s sophisticated interplay of textures, making it a timeless addition to any space.
