Bernhardt Barclay Round Travertine Coffee Table vs Plank Travertine Oak Coffee Table

The Bernhardt Barclay is the safer pick for most living rooms: a round stone top on a steel base, no assembly, and a footprint that works in tighter seating groups. The Plank is the statement piece for a large room, with a 50-inch travertine slab on sculpted FSC-certified oak legs, but it is very heavy and ships flat. Both are real stone tops, so expect variation and sealing care either way.

• Choose the Bernhardt Barclay if you want a round, ready-to-use table that fits a sofa-and-two-chairs layout without assembly.
• Choose the Plank Travertine Oak if you have a wide room, want a long sculptural centerpiece, and can handle a heavy table that needs assembly.
