Its two-tier circular frame in brass-finished iron creates visual interest at different heights—useful when you're trying to break up a room's horizontal lines. The glass shelves keep it feeling light despite the metal framework, so it won't visually crowd smaller sitting rooms or reading corners. Works particularly well beside sofas or armchairs where you need drinks within reach but don't want a bulky side table. The brass finish warms up cooler color schemes, though it will show fingerprints. At £320, it's a considered purchase, but the dual levels do earn their keep when entertaining.
