Jorges Wooden Bedside Table

Some pieces carry the mark of the hand that made them, and the Jorges bedside table is one of them. It's made from solid mango wood with a warm natural grain, finished with delicate hand-painted detailing, fine white floral motifs and scrolling borders set against soft terracotta panels. It has the feel of furniture handed down rather than bought, the kind of piece that lends a room a little soul.

The two-panelled cabinet door, each panel with a painted central medallion, opens to handy storage out of sight. That makes it a side table with storage that does more than look pretty, giving you a place for books, chargers, and all those bits and pieces that collect beside a bed or sofa. The rustic, artisan character carries through to the simple iron pull and matching hinges.

Because every table is hand-painted, there's a slight variation in line and shade that machine-made furniture just can't offer. Each piece is a little different, and that uniqueness is part of what makes it feel special. Carved framing around the door and a softly scalloped base complete a design that's detailed without being fussy.

As good-looking as it is versatile, the Jorges works as a handsome bedside table, a side table beside an armchair, or a decorative touch in an entryway. Suitable for indoor use, it brings a handcrafted touch of warmth to bedrooms, living rooms, and relaxed reading corners.
