Step 1: Unboxing & Organizing

Instruction: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. You should have the leaf-shaped tabletop, a curved metal support piece, a rounded base compartment (which may open for storage), and a hardware kit (screws, bolts, washers). Lay everything out on a clean surface, verifying each item against your assembly manual.

Step 2: Attaching the Curved Metal Support to the Base

Instruction: Identify the round lower compartment or base piece. Align the curved metal support with the pre-drilled holes on the side or top edge of the base. Use the provided bolts to secure the metal support, leaving them slightly loose so you can make adjustments if necessary.

Step 3: Positioning the Leaf-Shaped Top

Instruction: Once the metal support is attached to the base, carefully place the leaf-shaped tabletop onto the free end of the curved metal piece. Match the tabletop’s pre-drilled holes with the mounting points on the support. Insert the screws or bolts and tighten them gradually, checking for level alignment.

Step 4: Adjusting for Rotation or Storage (If Applicable)

Instruction: If your model allows the top to swivel or pivot, test this feature now. Gently rotate the leaf top to ensure it moves smoothly. If the round lower unit offers storage, open or lift it according to the manual’s instructions. Tighten any remaining hardware so all parts function without wobbling.

Step 5: Final Checks & Styling

Instruction: Gently shake the entire table to confirm stability. Tighten any loose bolts or screws, then wipe down all surfaces with a soft cloth to remove dust or fingerprints. Finally, place your new coffee table in the desired spot—use the lower compartment for discreet storage and let the sculptural leaf top serve as an eye-catching platform for décor or refreshments.
