Explore the Acacia Wood and Beige Cord Side Table

Small but deliberate, this Ø40 cm side table sets a solid acacia wood top on a steel and beige cord structure. Acacia is a close-grained hardwood with a natural resistance to moisture, which is why it turns up so often on outdoor tables and chopping boards alike; its warm honey tone deepens slightly with exposure to light. The woven cord softens what would otherwise be a purely industrial base, giving the piece the tactile quality a Japandi interior relies on.

The steel frame is treated to resist rust, so the table can stay outside through a normal season without the base blooming orange at the joints. The timber carries FSC 100% chain-of-custody certification from responsibly managed forests. At just 40 cm across, it slips between two chairs where a larger table would not fit, and its low visual weight means a balcony still feels open with it in place. It is suitable for outdoor use.

Annual Care for Acacia and Cord

Acacia rewards a little attention once a year. Clean the solid acacia top, let it dry completely, then feed it with a product formulated for acacia wood, working the treatment in along the grain. That single annual pass is what keeps the surface from drying out, greying and eventually opening fine cracks across the face. Between times, wipe spills promptly and avoid leaving wet glasses standing on the wooden table top for hours at a time.

The beige cord needs less: brush loose dust from the weave, rinse it occasionally, then let it dry in the air rather than baking it in full sun. Indoors, the table earns its place beside an armchair or at the end of a bed, where the Ø40 cm top holds a book and a glass without dominating. Outside, keep it under cover during long spells of rain to extend the life of both the steel structure and the wood.
