Pair of Louis XVI Style Nightstands in Mahogany with Two Drawers and Framing
Each bedside table features a quadrangular body made of dark varnished mahogany, opening with two front drawers equipped with drop handles in brass. The top is bordered by a frame of gilded brass, and brass fillets highlight the crosspieces. The whole rests on four tapered legs accented with brass rings and finished with feet of the same metal. This linear sobriety enhanced with brass fits within the Louis XVI style reinterpreted by French cabinetmakers of the 1950s, reflecting the quality productions of the time — a refined classicism, close to the aesthetics of the great Parisian decoration houses, which pairs well with both antique and contemporary interiors. Condition report: Good overall condition. Uniform varnish with slight signs of use, brass with a consistent golden patina, functional drawers. An elegant and easy-to-live-with pair of bedside tables, suitable for framing a bed or as small accent tables in a living room.
