Shop Antique Bedside Tables
If something your bedroom looks empty, try filling that bare space with bedside tables. These pieces offer valuable storage and convenient access to items you may need at night while giving your bedroom an extra hint of style. Nightstands also visually anchor your bed to its position in your room.
With bedside tables, you can integrate a subtle antique element into your bedroom to give it personality. Fireside Antiques offers a wide selection of antique nightstands to complement your interior style and add visual interest.
Antique Bedside Table Size
Your nightstand and mattress height should be about the same to ensure that the tables and your bed look proportionate. Additionally, the bedside table should be large enough for a lamp that reaches the same height as your headboard. The taller your headboard, the larger the surface of your nightstand surface should be.
Antique Nightstands for Functionality
Before buying a nightstand, consider your needs carefully. If you want convenient access to all your bedtime reading material, select a unit with sufficient storage.
The table’s surface should also be large enough for your drinking water, book, lamp, glasses, alarm clock, decorative item, phone, or any other object that you may need at night or first thing in the morning. If you don’t want to clutter your nightstand, select a unit with drawers that you can easily access.
Improve Your Bedroom’s Visual Appeal
Take the existing design elements of your bedroom into account when selecting new nightstands. Your taste in antiques matters, but you also want your bedside tables to add to your bedroom’s visual appeal.
The ideal table materials depend on the style you want to achieve. There are styling guidelines to follow, but you can deviate from them to give your bedroom a unique look.
You Don’t Have to Match
Fireside Antiques has bedside tables available as single units or pairs. Most buyers prefer to buy sets to achieve a uniform look. However, if you find two separate nightstands that you like, you can still use them.
Ideally, you should see some similarities between the antique bedside tables. For example, they might have the same color, materials, design features, or size. If the tables look entirely different, consider using matching lamps on each one.
Buy Your New Nightstand
Fireside Antiques has an exclusive collection of bedside tables available from as early as the 18th century. With so many design styles and features, you can find one that fits your unique needs.
