We’ve gathered our friends and families around sustainable furniture for years. These are our favorite coffee tables, made from sustainable, eco-friendly materials.

Coffee tables serve as both work and play spaces, accommodating laptops, drinks, keys, and everything in between. However, they’re often made of cheap materials, affecting their durability and quality, or are not considered safe for the home due to off-gassing, which can particularly affect pets and children.

If you’re looking to upgrade your living room to a more sustainable space, we’ve found coffee tables that are sustainably made and designed to last. You’ll find plenty of responsibly sourced materials and eco-conscious practices, without any danger or disappointment. 

Why shop for sustainable furniture?

Shopping for sustainable furniture isn’t just about being eco-friendly — it’s a smarter, more conscious way to furnish your home. Sustainable furniture pieces are often made from eco-friendly materials like reclaimed or FSC-certified wood or recycled metals, reducing waste and ensuring the materials are sourced in an environmentally responsible manner. They’re also built to last, meaning you won’t have to replace them as often, which saves money in the long run. Many sustainable brands also avoid toxic chemicals in their furniture (like VOCs), so your indoor air stays cleaner and healthier. Plus, by choosing ethical companies, you’re supporting fair wages and safer working conditions for artisans. And let’s be honest — there’s something extra satisfying about having stylish, well-crafted furniture that not only looks amazing but also helps protect the planet!

Our criteria:

Our editors have filled our homes with safe, sustainable furniture for over a decade. We’ve selected our favorite coffee tables that are sustainable, eco-friendly, and made to last. We regularly add new options to this list when they meet the following criteria.

  • AFFORDABLE | A new coffee table can be a big investment. We’ve included at least one option that’s easier on your wallet.
  • SUSTAINABLE & ECO-FRIENDLY | The brands on this list are taking measures to reduce their environmental impact while providing you with a safe, nontoxic coffee table. We’ve noted the relevant certifications that support them. You’ll find options here that are FSC-certified, Climate Neutral, and registered B Corps, and that’s just the start.
  • QUALITY MATERIALS | The options on this list use natural, organic, and high-quality recycled materials whenever possible, making them naturally durable and age beautifully.

And while you’re revamping your space, why not add some sustainable sofas and our favorite nontoxic rugs?

Hardman Design is a brand we’ve recently fallen for, known for blending Scandinavian warmth with modernist clarity. Founded by Liam Hardman, the company creates handcrafted furniture in Ukraine with a team of skilled artisans, using only solid hardwood. Natural knots and variations are embraced and stabilized with dark epoxy resin, reflecting the brand’s philosophy of celebrating the material’s character while ensuring long-lasting quality.

One standout piece is the ARLEN Nesting Round Coffee Tables. The soft, circular tables have gentle edges and a soft silhouette. The pairing (a larger and a smaller round table) offers flexibility and warmth while staying true to the brand’s elegant, modern design philosophy. With various size options and two wood options (European Walnut or Oak), it’s a perfect standout piece.

Customer Review | “We are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional quality of the table. The craftsmanship is outstanding, and it has exceeded all our expectations. The team went above and beyond… A heartfelt thank you once again for your outstanding service and dedication. – Katherina P. (Read all reviews.)

Customer Review | “I love this coffee table! I like that there is a little space for storage (I mostly keep coasters, remotes and a book in there), but that it isn’t bulky. I love using the removable lid as trays when I am snacking on my couch. Super easy to assemble, took me maybe 15 minutes. Already recommended this to a few friends.” – Emily Ancona (Read all reviews.)
