With their refined marquetry, these three nesting tables made of dark wood exude a very neat contemporary look in the living room. The geometric pattern of the top catches the eye, while the sculpted legs add a subtle sense of relief to the whole. Each one offers a specific use, with a drawer and a niche to keep remote controls, notebooks, or small everyday accessories within reach. Nestled one under the other, they unfold as needed and readily position themselves near a sofa. On the largest one, a ceramic lamp, a glass vase, and a serving tray create an elegant and easy-to-live-with scene.

Valued during the Art Deco period for their geometry and later reinvented in the 1950s and 60s with organic lines, they embody the ultimate modular furniture. They are called nesting tables by analogy to Russian dolls, offering an ingenious space-saving solution for small spaces. Versatile, they serve alternately as coffee tables, bedside tables, or auxiliary supports according to your momentary needs.
