This green wooden side table brings a delicately worn country touch, perfect for holding a lamp, a vase, or a few books in a living room. Its painted wood gives it a measured presence, while its size allows it to fit at the end of a sofa, in an entryway, or near a window. A second-hand piece, it charms with its vintage look and very versatile use, serving as both a decorative support and a side table. Topped with a lampshade in linen and a bouquet of dried flowers, it creates a simple and refined scene. Like all second-hand furniture, it bears the marks of its history: a few signs of time. Length: 51 cm Width: 40 cm Height: 77 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 [called guéridons] represented on the sculpted legs of the first models brought from Italy. This nomadic piece of furniture revolutionized social life at the court by allowing the rigidity of large buffets to be broken to create 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.
