Beatrice White Coffee TableBeatrice French Provincial Round Coffee Table, Quatrefoil Lattice Distressed White 81cm

A wide round fir top on an openwork lattice base, the soft white centrepiece for a country living room.

Beatrice is a round coffee table on a quatrefoil lattice base, the pierced clover pattern from old French and Moroccan ironwork, cut into timber and painted a distressed white. The wide round top is natural fir, left in its grain so the warm timber sits against the pale openwork below.

It measures about 81 cm across and stands 42 cm tall, the size that anchors a sofa-and-chairs arrangement without filling the room, since the lattice base keeps it feeling open. The white-and-timber pairing settles into French country, coastal and cottage schemes, and it sits beside the matching Beatrice side table if you want the set.

Why we love it

• ◆ Quatrefoil lattice base, a pierced clover pattern that keeps a big table feeling light.
• ◆ Wide natural fir top, an 81 cm round surface in warm timber grain.
• ◆ Distressed white finish, softly worn for French country, coastal and cottage rooms.
• ◆ Pairs with the side table, the matching Beatrice side table completes the look.

How to style it

A few ways to use it:

• Centre it between a sofa and chairs as the anchor of the room.
• Set a tray on top with a few books, a candle and fresh flowers.
• Match it with the Beatrice side table for a set.
• Build it out with other white-and-timber pieces from furniture.

Care & Keeping

Dust with a soft dry cloth, and wipe spills quickly with a barely damp cloth followed by a dry one. Use coasters or a tray under cups and anything moist, since the fir top is natural timber. Keep Beatrice indoors and out of long direct sun, which can fade the white over time.

Because Beatrice is hand-finished, slight variations in distressing, grain and tone are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
