Bedside Tables

Bedside tables do more than hold a lamp and a book: they set the bed's proportions and carry the small practicalities of nightly rituals. Our collection spans slim mid-century Scandi forms, drawered solid-oak classics and architectural marble-topped pieces, each sized to sit neatly beside a divan or a framed bed.

    A bedside table works best when the top sits 5 to 10cm above mattress height, so reaching for a lamp or glass doesn't mean lifting the hand too far. For a standard divan with a mattress at 55cm, that's a bedside around 60 to 65cm; for a low platform bed, a 45cm bedside is the matching pair.

    A 40 to 50cm wide bedside suits most bedrooms, holding a lamp, a water carafe, a book and a phone without crowding. Larger bedsides at 60cm and above work in more generous rooms or when the table doubles as bedroom storage, while narrow 30cm bedsides suit box rooms where wall space is at a premium.

    Matching bedsides give the bedroom a finished, considered feel that couples tend to reach for. Mismatched but complementary bedsides, such as two different pieces that share a timber tone and height, work beautifully in more layered interiors and sidestep the feeling of a furniture-shop bedroom.

    Drawered bedsides hide the chargers, reading glasses, and paperback piles that accumulate beside a bed, keeping the surface calm for a lamp and a book. Open-shelf bedsides display well-kept collections of books or small objects and suit tidier sleepers, with the shelf itself becoming part of the bedroom's composition.

      Sleep Sideways: Six Bedside Tables To Inspire
      Always by your side when you doze off or rise and shine, we give the modern bedside table the love it deserves with six beautiful ideas for you to try in your bedroom. Sure the Bedside Table is a handy place to pop a glass of water, but it can be so much more. From space saving storage to a podium for your designer reading lamp, this often overlooked piece of furniture can add a real accent to the bedroom or the perfect complement to your bed. Take a peek at six of our favourite stand-out standalone designs. Shop Bedside Tables Fit for a McQueen On paper Matthew Hilton's juxtaposition of industrial cast iron legs and opulent walnut carpentry shouldn't work, but it's hard to deny that the compact two drawer McQueen Bedside Table isn't a thing of real beauty. In keeping with the industrial feel, we've topped with our Junction Table Lamp in copper and placed alongside the Nordic King Size Bed. Contemporary Classic Matching a traditional silhouette with contemporary minimal palette, the Pinner Bedside Table in flint white makes for a harmonious interior design alongside our Bardot Bed. The Bend Table Lamp adds a modern counterpoint without disrupting the theme of clean, natural finishes. Norwegian Wood The perfect way to instantly add some character to your bedroom, we love the Nordic Bedside Tables mix of timbers and odd shaped cupboard and drawers. In keeping with the Scandi aesthetic, we've placed the JWDA Table Lamp by Danish brand Menu atop it's natural oak surface. Frame up The open and airy design of the Agnes Side Table is inspired by sixties Scandi furniture but still feels fresh within a modern bedroom setting. To match it's heritage feel we've add the iconic Anglepoise Original 1227 Mini Desk Lamp, providing some articulated lighting to your bedtime reading. Design to Fawn over Though designed primarily for the living room, the Fawn Side Tables mix of smooth solid oak frame, smoked glass top and fabric band shelving provides a graceful yet contemporary touch to the bedside. Make some space Minimal design reaches its logical conclusion in the Space 2 Drawer Bedside Unit - it geometric lines are maintained through a clever push button opening mechanism on each drawer which erases the need for handles. The simple silhouette of the Crawford Table Lamp in white is an obvious but satisfying fit. Pinto presto Ercol's classic Pinto range translates English windsor furniture into a soothing Bedside Table. The spindle like shelf and turned handles in oak are a beautiful contrast to the off white finish as is the industrial Junction Table Lamp in grey. Shop Bedside Tables Back to top

      Create This Urban Scandi Style Table Setting
      For the second instalment of his masterclass in Scandi style table settings, acclaimed interior stylist Emilio Pimentel-Reid talks us through his ‘Urban Copenhagen’ Dining display. Urban Copenhagen “Celebrating the fun side of Denmark’s capital, these sleek Scandinavian styles pair perfectly with urban interiors. Formal but with an out-there edge, this Scandi table and dining setting is the ideal way to wow your guests. Sparkle and shine: Henning Koppel Pitcher £275, Cobra Glass Carafe £54, Cobra Candelabra £140, Cobra Tumbler in Medium £25 (set of two), Cobra Dinner Plate £19 and Cobra Candle Holder £26 all from Georg Jensen shown with White Marble Cheese Board £75, LSA Wine Glassware from £30 and Santol Cutlery from £12, True Grace Dinner Candle £3 and Linen Napkin in Denim Blue £10. “A Scandi institution, Georg Jensen have been crafting elegant silver for over a century. So when it came to curating this sophisticated selection, I simply had to build around their sculptural silver centrepieces such as the Henning Koppel Pitcher and Cobra Candelabra. These modern forms are mirrored by other dinner and glassware pieces from Georg Jensen’s Cobra range. To provide accents of colour, incorporate bouquets of flowers and candles in a range of tones - I have used faux flowers from Abigail Ahern and Dinner Candles from True Grace.” Take a seat: Lau Dining Table by Stua £1655 shown with Offcut Stool by Tom Dixon £150, Eames DKR Chair £459, Laclasica Chair by Stua £335 and Sonny P Carver Chair in Cemento Grey Wool £325. “To emphasise the gleaming silver, white china and glassware table setting, I have paired with the Lau Dining Table by Stua - the Dark Ash finish creates a sultry contrast that evokes the dark nordic forests found throughout the region. The use of mix and match chairs nods to the eclecticism of Scandi style; the Laclasica Chair by Stua continues the theme of dark woods; the Sonny P Carver Chair contrasts with its upholstered shell; while the iconic Eames DKW Chair is functional minimalism at its finest.” — Now that you've mastered the art of the swanky Scandi table display, why not try your hand at Emilio's Midnight Sun setting or start building your own by browsing our contemporary dining room furniture.
