With its measured presence and beige hue, this wooden side table naturally fits into a country and vintage interior. Its two drawers provide useful storage for glasses, mail, or a few everyday accessories, while their height allows for easy sliding of small items. In a living room, it accompanies an armchair or sits at the end of a sofa; in a bedroom, it makes a lovely bedside table for a lamp and a book. Its top readily welcomes a ceramic vase, a mug, or a bouquet of dried flowers. A second-hand piece, it retains the memory of its past with several marks. Length: 48 cm Width: 45 cm Height: 85 cm Drawer height: 7 cm A brief history of the side table Born in the 17th century under the name "guéridon," the side table owes its origin to Moorish slaves [known as guéridons] depicted on the sculpted legs of the first models brought back from Italy. This nomadic piece of furniture revolutionized social life at court by allowing the rigidity of large buffets to be broken, creating conversation islands anywhere in the room. Its light and compact structure was designed to be moved according to needs: to place a candlestick, a cup of tea, or a bedside book.
