The transparency of the plexiglass gives this second-hand side table a discreet and very contemporary presence. Its clean material lets light through and visually lightens the overall look, while offering an ideal surface to hold a lamp, a book, or a vase in a living room. Its top can also be tucked at the end of a sofa and accompany an armchair without weighing down the space. In a contemporary interior, it easily interacts with warmer materials such as wood, textiles, or metal. Topped with a beautiful art book and a candle holder, it creates an elegant and refined reading nook.

A little history of the side table
Born in the 17th century under the name of "guéridon", the side table owes its origin to the Moorish slaves (called guéridons) represented on the carved legs of the first models brought back from Italy. This nomadic piece of furniture revolutionized social life at court by allowing the rigidity of large buffets to be broken to create conversation islands anywhere in the room. Its light and compact structure was designed to be moved as needed: to place a candlestick, a cup of tea, or a bedside book.
