Nesting tables -- usually a set of three matching tables in graduating sizes that can be "nested" one beneath another -- are an interesting decor addition. And, they add useful extra serving and work space when used separately. Unlike folding snack tables that require storage space, nesting tables can function as a bedside table, and, in the living room, as an end table or table between a pair of chairs. The term nesting tables can also refer to any non-matching tables that can be fit one beneath another.
