High Tables

High tables: the piece of furniture that redefines how a space is experienced

Our high tables transform a space, creating a more informal atmosphere while maintaining a modern, functional, and relaxed feel. At The Masie, we see this piece of furniture as a design element with its own unique character, capable of defining the tone of a kitchen, terrace, or restaurant with a single choice.

What distinguishes a good high table is not its size, but its balance: just the right proportions, materials that age well, and a silhouette that complements the rest of the space without competing with it. That's why our selection prioritizes pieces with meticulous finishes and clean lines, designed to integrate seamlessly into contemporary interiors.

High tables that transform any space

In the kitchen, a high table functions as a bar, island, or quick breakfast area, visually defining open spaces from the living room without sacrificing spaciousness. On a terrace or in a garden, it creates an open-air bar atmosphere that encourages conversation and facilitates movement among guests. And in the hospitality industry, it provides a modern, airy aesthetic that optimizes seating capacity without compromising on design.

Its versatility is precisely what makes it such a perfect choice. The same piece of furniture that brightens up a breakfast bar in the morning transforms into the centerpiece of an afternoon aperitif or an informal workspace when needed. One object, many uses, always with The Masie 's avant-garde style.

Materials and finishes with personality

The material defines both the aesthetics and durability of the furniture, and it's where much of its character resides. Metal lends a modern, industrial feel, with clean lines, great strength, and minimal maintenance, making it ideal for minimalist kitchens and outdoor spaces. Wood introduces warmth and natural texture, with the ability to fit into virtually any style, from Mediterranean to the most contemporary. And glass or marble-effect tops add luminosity and a touch of sophistication for those seeking a piece with a refined presence.

How to choose the perfect high table for your space

Before making your decision, consider the primary use and available space, as each style addresses a different need. Metal models feel right at home in modern kitchens, patios, and restaurants, and pair naturally with metal or rattan stools to create a balanced contrast. Wood is the perfect complement to warm environments—home bars, cozy kitchens, or outdoor dining areas—and harmonizes beautifully with wooden stools or those upholstered in neutral tones.

If space is limited, a compact or round table will allow you to create a gathering area without overwhelming the room; on balconies and in breakfast nooks, stackable stools are the ideal complement for easy storage. The key is to maintain consistency between the table, the chairs, and the rest of the furniture so that the overall effect is balanced.

Pair them with the perfect stools

A bar isn't the same without a seat at the right height. That's why choosing the right stools is just as important as choosing the table. At The Masie, we have a wide selection of high stools in different materials, colors, and finishes, designed to perfectly complement each piece. And if your kitchen has a more traditional table, you can also explore our chairs .

Advice from our decorating experts

The height is the main attraction of these tables, but it's also the detail that needs to be measured carefully. Before choosing the stools, check the distance between the tabletop and the floor: ideally, you should leave 25 to 30 cm of space between the stool seat and the underside of the table for comfortable seating. If the table will be the centerpiece of an open-plan kitchen, opt for stools that can be completely tucked under the tabletop when not in use: you'll gain a sense of order and spaciousness that you'll notice every day.

Frequently asked questions about high tables

What is the height of a high table and what type of stool do I need?

They are usually around 90-110 cm high, similar to a bar counter. For comfortable seating, ideally there should be 25-30 cm between the stool seat and the underside of the tabletop, so stools measuring 65-79 cm fit well. Before choosing, measure the height of your table and consult the specifications of each product to ensure you get the right combination.

Can they be used outdoors?

Yes, provided the model is designed for it. Materials like treated metal or aluminum offer excellent resistance to humidity and temperature changes, making them perfect for patios, gardens, or hospitality areas. To prolong their lifespan, we recommend protecting or covering them when they are not in use for extended periods.

How many people does it serve?

It depends on the format. Compact or round models are ideal for two or three people and fit very well in kitchens and balconies, while rectangular or larger versions allow for more diners, making them perfect for spacious American bars or hospitality businesses.

Are they difficult to maintain?

Not at all. Most of our models require very simple maintenance: a damp cloth and mild soap are all you need to remove everyday dirt. For wood, we recommend avoiding continuous sun exposure and occasionally applying specific products to preserve its finish.
