DREIECK DESIGN · MADE IN GERMANY SINCE 1984
A side table is a small piece with a very specific job. Beside an armchair it holds a book and a drink; at the end of a sofa it may carry a lamp. Its height, base and position matter just as much as the size of the top.
DREIECK DESIGN makes glass side tables in Germany, with round and angular designs, different glass finishes and a range of metal details. Whether you call it a side table or an end table, choose the piece around the seat it will serve. Compare the examples below, then use the planning advice to refine your choice.
THE COLLECTION · DIFFERENT APPROACHES
These examples show different ways to approach the same type of furniture. Open each model to compare its dimensions, available finishes and current configuration price. The photographs show particular versions; the selected options determine your own piece.
Round glass and a metal frame
ORA pairs a round Optiwhite top with a metal frame. Different fixed sizes and matte or polished chrome options let you coordinate the piece with a seat and its surroundings.
Glass above and below
A round glass tabletop and glass base create a balanced outline around a central metal support. Compare the available metal finishes and glass surfaces on the product page.
Adjustable height and a handle
HEAVY METAL combines a glass surface with an adjustable-height construction and an integrated handle. Compare it when the same table needs to serve seats of different heights.
A compact glass companion
LIDO offers another approach to a small side table. Look at the pictured construction alongside the full dimensions, and check how its footprint fits beside your sofa or chair.
A clear glass and metal outline
The side-table version of QUADRO brings the same family of glass and metal detailing to a smaller role. Open this specific product page to compare its dimensions with the coffee-table version.
Another way to frame a seat
COPAIN adds a different silhouette to the comparison. Use the full product view to judge the base and top from your seated position, then check the chosen version against your available space.
SIZE & EVERYDAY USE
Measure your sofa or armchair’s armrest and sit in the position you normally use. Test where you can set down a cup without stretching or twisting. A surface near armrest height is a useful starting point, but a high, broad armrest may make another position more practical.
If a lamp will stand on the table, include its base, switch and overall height. The table needs to support the whole arrangement, with a free area for the things you use. Check the cable route to the outlet so it stays clear of feet and walkways.
For a tall glass side table, check both reach and stability for the intended use. Choosing one of several fixed heights is different from adjusting a table while using it. If you want to change the height regularly, compare a model with that confirmed feature.
Planning tip
Measure from the seat you actually use. Two armchairs that look similar can need different table heights.
PROPORTIONS & PLANNING
A round glass side table can sit beside a curved chair or within an open corner of a seating group. An angular top may follow a wall or the end of a sofa. Neither shape automatically occupies less space: the base and its position can be the deciding factors.
Mark out the tabletop and base on the floor. Stand up, turn toward the room and sit down again. Check that your feet have room and the table remains outside the path you use. Between two chairs, make sure both people can reach the surface comfortably.
When you want a narrow or small glass end table, start with what has to fit on it. A broad lamp base may leave little space for a book and a cup. Moving the light to the wall or floor can free the tabletop without making the table itself larger.
Planning tip
A smaller top only helps if the base, feet and everyday objects fit too. Plan the complete arrangement.
DETAILS THAT MATTER
A group of side tables can give individual seats their own surfaces. Different heights and shapes create a less uniform arrangement, while a shared glass or metal finish ties the pieces together. JANUS designs offer another set of proportions to compare.
Do not assume that two tables will nest simply because one is smaller. Check the clearance under the top, the leg positions and the base. True nesting depends on the construction of the specific pieces.
If you are combining a side table with a coffee table, assign each a job. The central table can serve the group, while the side table keeps a lamp or drink close to one seat. Matching every detail is optional; keeping both surfaces useful is essential.
Planning tip
Give each table a place and a purpose. Avoid adding a second piece where it blocks access to the first.
FINISHES & FUNCTION
Clear glass leaves the surrounding floor and upholstery visible. Low-iron Optiwhite has less tint than conventional float glass, which can be useful beside pale finishes. Satin-finished or lacquered surfaces create a different effect; available options vary by model.
A white glass side table can pick up a light wall or cabinet. A dark finish may provide a more deliberate accent. Use the configurator to compare the available colors, and ask about a custom color when a close match matters.
Coordinate the metal with lamps, chair legs and nearby furniture. Brushed stainless steel, polished stainless steel and chrome finishes have different appearances and constructions. A table should look right from your seated viewpoint as well as from across the room.
Planning tip
Use samples for close color matching. Screen images are a useful guide to the design, but room light changes the appearance of a finish.
BEFORE YOU CHOOSE
Planning in inches? Product dimensions are shown in centimeters. One inch is 2.54 cm. Send us your original measurements and units when discussing a custom piece, so we can agree the dimensions precisely.
Remove loose dust or grit before wiping the surface, and use clean, soft cloths with a cleaner suited to the actual finish. Avoid abrasive pads and dragging rough objects across glass. Appropriate pads or coasters help protect the surface from rough bases, moisture and hot objects.
Glass, satin finishes, lacquer, wood and metal may need different care. Follow the instructions for your selected piece rather than applying clear-glass advice to every surface. Our glass cleaning guide explains the basics.
Check intended loads and accessories against the specific model. The glass type or thickness alone is not a load rating for a finished table. Tell us about heavy objects or a special use before ordering, so we can review the construction with you.
YOUR SPACE · YOUR MATERIALS · YOUR IDEAS
DREIECK DESIGN has developed and manufactured furniture in Germany since 1984. You can ask about changes to a collection piece or bring us an original design. Our custom work can combine glass, solid wood and matching metal parts, with dimensions, colors and finishes agreed for the project.
For a custom side table, tell us which sofa or chair it will sit beside, the armrest height and the available footprint. Include the objects it will hold, any lamp and your preferred glass and metal finishes.
You do not need a finished technical drawing to begin. A sketch, photos and a clear description of how the furniture will be used give us a practical starting point. We discuss the construction and details with you, then prepare an offer for the agreed specification. Explore custom-made furniture or contact our team to start planning.
If you are visiting Germany, you can compare selected furniture and materials at our showroom in Hennef near Cologne and Bonn. Visits are by prior appointment only, arranged by email or phone. Tell us which models or materials you would like to see so we can confirm what is available. We also advise on furniture selection and original custom designs.
For a collection piece, choose the available dimensions and finishes on the product page and order directly in our online store. This also applies to customers in the United States and the United Kingdom. For a custom design, contact us first to agree the details and receive an individual offer.
The “from” price in the product gallery is a starting price. Your selected size, glass, finishes and equipment determine the configuration price. Compare like-for-like specifications rather than using the starting price as the cost of every pictured version.
Shipping charges, service and local requirements depend on the destination. Read our delivery information for your country before ordering, and ask us about the current lead time for your chosen version. Share any restricted access, narrow doors, stairs or elevator limits before confirming the order.
GOOD TO KNOW
The terms often describe the same type of small occasional table. An end table usually sits at the end of a sofa; a side table may stand beside a sofa, chair or another piece. Choose by the intended position, height and use.
Use the armrest height as a starting point, then test your reach while seated. A broad armrest, low seat or particular lamp may change the best position. Share those measurements if you would like help comparing models.
Yes. ORA and RONDO are examples of round designs in the collection. Compare the tabletop size, base and finish on each product page. A round outline still needs enough floor space and room for your feet.
Yes, if its height and footprint suit the bed and you need an open surface. If you want a drawer for personal items, compare the dedicated glass nightstands instead.
Some models have that feature, including HEAVY METAL. Other tables have a height selected when ordering. Check the exact product specification rather than treating multiple size options as an adjustment mechanism.
Choose a model and version suited to the intended load. Include the lamp or planter dimensions in your plan, use appropriate surface protection and keep moisture away from sensitive finishes. Ask us about heavy objects before ordering.
Only if the dimensions and construction allow it. Check the clear opening beneath the larger top and the positions of both bases. Two different heights alone do not establish that one table can slide under another.
Yes. Collection pieces can be ordered directly in our online store. Check our delivery information for destination-specific charges and service. For a custom design, contact us first to agree the specification and offer.
