Vintage bedside tables and used bedside tables: Bauhaus, Thonet, teak

1 3

The bedside table is the smallest piece in the bedroom and the one you look at every night. Used, you get character here for little money.

At 2nd home you will find vintage bedside tables and used bedside tables from second hand: Bauhaus tubular steel models like the B 107 by Thonet and designs by Mücke Melder, restored pieces in honey brown, Danish teak, Florentine bedside tables in sets, plus single pieces from household clearances.Every bedside table is described with all dimensions and photos of its true condition. The matching bed awaits among the beds, more storage among the dressers, the whole selection in the bedroom.

What should you look for in a used bedside table?

At the height: it should sit roughly at mattress level, usually 50 to 65 centimetres. At drawers that run smoothly, and at stability, because a bedside table carries lamp, water glass and book. On tubular steel, check that chrome and paint are intact. Everything we know is stated with every piece, and where a bedside table has been restored, we describe what was done and what was not.

Single or in pairs?

Two matching bedside tables from second hand are rarer than a single one, so sets deserve a quick look. If you like to mix, combine a Bauhaus bedside table with a teak piece; it works when the heights match.

Why buy used?

Because a bedside table of the 1930s or 1960s is built from material that is rarely worked like this today, and because you pay far less than for a new piece without history.

Buying a vintage bedside table: height, drawer and surface

  • Choose a vintage bedside table by the height of your mattress: the top works best at about the same level. Every bedside table is described with condition, dimensions and photos; check drawers and compartments. The bed is among the beds, more storage among the dressers and the reading light among the table lamps. Shipping is insured.
