This coffee table is gorgeous. As others have said it runs true to size, so it is high. I switched out a ming style coffee table for it and it has taken me a couple of weeks to get used to the visual height of it in comparison to my fireplace. So make sure you understand what this will look like in your space. The metal of the legs is also quite dark compared to the photos, but again, I was prepared for that and I love it. It works visually. I love this table, the perfect mix of modern and rustic (if there is such a thing)!
