Apparently people out here just labeling things whatever they want. Even proper furniture stores make no meaningful distinction between a coffee table and a cocktail table. There used to be a difference in size and shape (cocktail tables were square or rectangular, and not quite as tall) but now, like in most areas of life where words and laws no longer matter, furniture stores are just going off of “vibes.”

High-quality real wood furniture is no longer available for the middle class. It’s either big box store quality (iffy at the best of times, but thanks to the Enshittification of All Things getting increasingly more common) for the masses, or high-end/bespoke shops for the elite. Places like West Elm, Pottery Barn, Ashley Furniture and even department stores like Macy’s have been degrading in quality and craftsmanship over the last decade. Customer service, too. #InteriorDesign #Furniture
