With its light wood bamboo and low profile, this second-hand side table brings a measured countryside touch to the living room or bedroom. Its lightweight structure makes it an elegant support for a lamp, a book, or a cup, while remaining easy to slide next to a sofa or near an armchair. The bamboo, crafted with simplicity, offers a warm presence and naturally complements linen, rattan, or weathered wooden furniture. In an entryway or at the end of a sofa, it readily accommodates a narrow vase, a few magazines, or a ceramic catchall. On its top, a bouquet of dried flowers and a stack of beautiful books create a delicately curated scene. Width: 32 cm Depth: 32 cm Height: 30 cm A brief history of the side table Born in the 17th century under the name “guéridon,” the side table owes its origin to the Moorish slaves [called guéridons] depicted on the sculpted feet of the first models brought 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 lightweight and compact structure was designed to be moved as needed: to place a candlestick, a cup of tea, or a bedside book.
