Elegant, architectural, and beautifully refined—this exquisite pair of French Louis XVI–style nightstands brings an unmistakable sense of Parisian sophistication to any bedroom or sitting room. Their form is as classic as it is functional, showcasing the craftsmanship and regal restraint that defined the Louis XVI era.

Each nightstand features a pristine white marble top framed by an ornate pierced brass gallery—an iconic French detail designed to elevate both beauty and practicality. Below the marble rest three smooth-gliding drawers with original brass pulls, outlined in delicate gilt trim that highlights the richness of the mahogany-toned wood. Fluted pilasters run vertically along each side, lending structure and depth, while tapered legs finished with gilt sabots complete the silhouette with quiet elegance.

Dovetail joinery, brass-bound edges, and the weight of the marble all speak to the quality of their construction—pieces designed not merely to decorate a room, but to live in it for generations. A perfectly matched pair of this caliber is rare to find, suggesting they may have originally been created as a his and hers set given their very slight variation in proportion.

Condition Notes

These antiques are in excellent condition for their age, with only minor, age-appropriate character:

• Marble tops are perfect with no cracks, discoloration, or repairs.
• One nightstand shows subtle sun discoloration on the wood, visible only in certain lighting and photographed for transparency.
• Small indentations on one piece near the second drawer, consistent with gentle historic use but not distracting to the eye.
• Brass galleries, pulls, and trim are all intact and beautifully patinated.

 These nuances are the kind we cherish—signatures of authenticity that only time can create.
