What customers say

Reviewers consistently point to the solid wood construction and distinctive three legged form, appreciating its role as a sculptural centerpiece.

Know before you buy
At 15.3 inches high, the Trienna is designed as a coffee or side table rather than a standard dining table. Its low profile makes it ideal for lounge areas or as a sculptural accent piece.
Form-pressed birch is a signature Artek technique that provides exceptional strength and structural integrity while remaining lightweight. This method allows the table to be both sturdy and easy to move around your space.
The oak finish showcases the natural wood grain and warmth of the veneer, while the white and black options feature a lacquered or stained finish that provides a more uniform, modern aesthetic while still highlighting the table's unique geometry.
The hexagonal shape is surprisingly versatile; it fits well in corners, as a centerpiece in a seating arrangement, or grouped with other pieces. Its symmetrical design allows it to anchor a room without feeling bulky.
To maintain the finish, wipe the surface regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, and always use coasters to prevent water rings or heat damage.
