Bridge table designed by Matthew Hilton from Heal’s

Bridge table
The Matthew Hilton-designed Bridge table is another great design from the Heal's Scandinavian season.

Just a look at the table reveals its mid-century inspired influences, with its elegant tapering legs, and oak or walnut veneer finish. There's a practical twist to this design too: it's able to extend in size. Available in two sizes, the smaller table extends from 110cm up to 160cm, while the larger table is 260cm when extended.  

While the table is able to grow or shrink in size, there's no escaping the price you'll be paying for this classic design: the smaller table costs £1095, while the larger version costs £1595.

We have featured one of these in the past, but as this G-Plan Astro coffee table is going cheap right now, it is well worth flagging up once more.

It's one of the classics from the G-Plan golden age, a coffee table made in the midcentury style back in the 1960s, with this curved wood frame made of teak, topped off with a safety glass surface.

British-made (and to a high standard), this Astro coffee table is currently at a bargain £1.24.
