20+ Live Edge Coffee Tables That’ll Lend an Organic Touch to Your Living Room

Modern classic furniture showcasing the natural beauty of burled, knotted, or salvaged wood, (what we call as live edges) has become increasingly popular. Live edge wood can be used in different ways, however, coffee tables are the most commonly used furnishing. Designers can customize live edge coffee tables according to desired requirements, and there are choices for wood and finishing too.

Live edge coffee tables can be categorized into two main groups: wood slab and tree round tables. It means some are made from longer wood slabs, while others are made from slices of a tree trunk and burl anomalies. There’s no doubt that all of them are worthy additions to any home, but they boast varying aesthetics too.

The ongoing trend of making “live edge furniture” might see a slight decline this year as some designers like Michael Berman want 2018 to be the year of fine woods with simple edges. However, there are thousands of people who love and want to include such organic furnishings in homes. And that’s why we have compiled a thorough collection to apprise them all with some of the most unique live edge coffee tables made by different designers or DIY’ers.
