Travertine Console Table with Two Arches – Solid Stone Statement

I’ve had the travertine console table with the four arches for about six weeks and it’s become the piece everyone comments on. In person it looks like a little architectural sculpture—those arches keep it from feeling bulky while the stone gives it real presence. The top is substantial (feels around 1.25–1.5 inches thick), and the whole thing is heavy enough that you’ll want two people to set it up. Mine arrived in a wooden crate with dense foam; no cracks or major chips, just the natural pitting you expect in travertine and a couple of tiny filled spots you only see up close.

Color-wise, my slab leans warm beige with soft veining and a few creamy clouds—exactly the organic variation I hoped for, but worth noting if you’re expecting uniformity. I added felt pads under the arches to protect the floor and did a quick level check; one arch was a hair off but a thinner pad fixed it. I sealed the top right away and it’s handled keys, a ceramic lamp, and the occasional water glass without issues—unsealed travertine will etch, so don’t skip that step. Day-to-day care is easy with a damp cloth and pH-neutral cleaner.

Dimensions are great behind a sofa and in an entry; it’s deep enough for styling but not intrusive. Price is up there, but the build feels solid, there’s no wobble, and it genuinely elevates the room. Only con: it’s not kid-proof—corners are crisp and the stone will chip if you’re careless.
