Crate & Barrel Alira Coffee Table

While the surface has a subtle, rippled texture, it is designed to be flat enough to hold drinks and decor securely. The texture is primarily aesthetic, catching light to create a warm glow rather than creating an uneven surface that would cause items to tip.

Like most metallic finishes, the plated bronze can show fingerprints with regular use. However, because of the undulating, textured surface, smudges are significantly less noticeable than they would be on a high-gloss or perfectly smooth metal tabletop.

Yes. The Alira coffee table is equipped with adjustable leg levelers, which allow you to tweak the height of each leg slightly to ensure the table sits perfectly flat on hardwood, tile, or rugs.

Constructed from cast aluminum, the table is substantial enough to feel high-quality and stable, but it is lighter than a solid iron or steel piece of the same size. This makes it easier to move when you need to rearrange your living room layout.

To maintain the finish, simply wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the plated bronze finish over time.

A 40-inch square table is a generous size that works best in medium-to-large seating areas. Because of its slim, tapered legs and airy silhouette, it avoids looking bulky, but you should ensure you have at least 18 inches of clearance between the table and your sofa for comfortable movement.
