This wooden pedestal column, with shades of beige, ecru, and natural colors, adds a country touch to a polished interior. Its patinated appearance gives it a unique decorative presence while remaining easy to integrate into a living room or entryway. Its height allows for the display of a lamp, a vase, or a sculpture. Height: 87.5 cm Diameter: 24 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 back from Italy. This nomadic piece of furniture revolutionized social life at court by breaking the rigidity of large buffets to create conversation islands anywhere in the room. Its lightweight and compact structure was designed to be moved as needed: to place a candlestick, a cup of tea, or a bedside book.
