Bedside tables have a long history and are as important and useful today as they have ever been. In the Victorian era, these bedroom cabinets were called nightstands and were used to store a chamber pot. As a result, they were also called pot cupboards. With the arrival of indoor plumbing, a single drawer was added above the closed cupboard and came to resemble the piece of furniture we recognise today. You probably won’t want or need to store a chamber pot these days, but you will want a handy place for a few key items within easy reach of the bed – your alarm clock, the book you’re reading, reading glasses, a tumbler of water, your mobile phone, to name just a few! Vintage bedside tables come in many wood finishes, and you will find some French or Victorian bedside cabinets that have beautiful marble tops for a stunning finish. Mix and match these walnut or oak tables with edgy industrial lighting to create an interesting bedroom interior. You’ll find a variety of side tables and cupboards here that can be used next to the bed, and we provide dimensions to make it simple to decide exactly what height is most useful. We offer national delivery on our bedside tables.
