It is a versatile piece of furniture made with small spaces in mind. Or those who often work on portable laptops. An upscale version of the classic folding TV tray tables, the Riley Table has a sleek and slim silhouette that allows it to slip into virtually any space.

Designed by Sam McMorran for furniture manufacturer Naughtone, the Riley Table is made out of solid wood that is sealed with a light matte lacquer. The Riley Table boasts the perfect size to make it easily slide on sofa arms or benches. It can also stand alone.
