Bedside tables ever. From ancient times to our days

The roots of the use of bedside tables as an accessory in which we place our most intimate and personal everyday items go back to 16th century France. The French term "commodus", meaning convenient or handy, has evolved over time, using the Latin word "commodus" to translate into nomenclatures that many Latin-derived languages ​​still use to name this complement. Originally, the bedside tables were larger and were not necessarily positioned on the sides of the bed. It was only in the Renaissance that this complement began to take on the look we know today. The bedside tables have undergone an important transformation since the Rococo period of Louis XVI; the concept of functionality was omitted, and the piece of furniture was primarily decorative; the legs and drawers show decorations and artistic details typical of that period; the support plates are made of noble materials such as marble or natural stone. Elegance and brightness gave this piece of equipment solemnity and sublime, making it an indispensable and integral element of any bedroom. The neoclassical period was a transitional phase, during which the bedside tables began to take on further sobriety, while maintaining their distinctive, decorative characteristics. Starting from the 19th century, bedside tables permanently acquired the precise features of the furniture we use today. Slender shapes, more refined and luxurious materials have left the way to wood and essences such as cherry, mahogany, hickory and ash. The symbol of this historical period are the typical bedside tables with drawers, which we are also used to. After all, from 900 AD until our day, a wide variety of materials were used; new shapes saw the light, and the decorative aspect gained a personality in line with artistic orientation or fashion trends. Next to the cabinets with drawers, bedside tables with doors have appeared as an innovative reinterpretation that opens the way to new applications of this type of furniture.
