Ellipse Travertine Coffee Table with Stone Ball Base

I hesitated at the price, but the moment this travertine beauty landed in my living room, it clicked. The stone has a rich, natural pattern and a silky honed finish, and the cylindrical base feels rock solid. It’s heavy in a good way and the edges are clean and well crafted. For me, the quality more than matches the cost.

Unboxed it and the travertine instantly felt like a piece of sculpture in my living room. The stone has soft, natural veining that shifts in the light, with a finely honed finish that reads warm and matte, not glossy. The ellipse top feels elegant and the ball base gives it a grounded, gallery vibe. Edges are smooth, the color is creamy with subtle fossils, and it looks richer in person than in photos. 5/5.

5/5. The table arrived earlier than promised and the courier called ahead to schedule a convenient drop-off. It came in a sturdy wooden crate with thick foam, corner protectors and clear labels, so the travertine top and the solid cylindrical base were pristine. No chips, no wobble, no dust. Unboxing was straightforward with a box cutter and the parts were wrapped separately with extra padding between the layers. For such a heavy piece, the care in packaging and smooth delivery made the whole experience stress free.

Five stars the moment it landed in my living room. The travertine has this calm, sun-warmed tone that sits between cream and soft sand, with delicate veining that looks different every hour. Morning light pulls out a pale honey glow, while evening lamps bring a cozy, latte warmth. It blends effortlessly with my oak floors and tan leather, yet still feels special. The cylindrical base keeps it sculptural without stealing from that beautiful, nuanced color.

I bought the Ellipse Travertine Coffee Table with the cylindrical base last year, and it still looks like the day it arrived. The stone has taken on a soft patina without any chips or stains, and water rings wipe away with a quick cloth. The base is rock solid. No wobble, even with kids leaning on it and a dog tail thumping by. We’ve moved once and it handled the trip without a scratch. It feels like an heirloom piece that will outlast trends and probably me.
