Do you want your mahogany bedside table to match your bed or do you want it to contrast? A lot of people like their bedroom furniture to match however some take a more eclectic approach. So do you mix or match?
The most obvious way to match your furniture is to stick with a range for instance the Sleigh Range or Louis Philippe Range. If you prefer something a little more French we have the Rococo Range or big and bold the Carved Four Poster Bed with matching bedsides.
The Sleigh Range has a choice of two bedsides, the 1 Drawer Sleigh Mahogany Bedside Table (BS002) with shelves underneath or the 3 Drawer Sleigh Bedside (BS001) which offers extra storage for your bedroom.
Similarly the Louis Philippe Range has a choice of 2 bedsides. The 1 Drawer Bedside (BS041) which has a useful cupboard underneath the hidden drawer or the 2-3 Drawer Bedside (BS040). This bedside has 2 obvious drawers with a further “secret” hidden drawer at the top.
For those of you who prefer a French look the Rococo Range could be ideal. The Rococo Bedside with Pediment echoes the detail of the Rococo bed’s headboard. The Rococo Bedside with Flute Legs is a small bedside table if size is restricted.
If you have room for the large impressive Carved Four Poster Bed we have matching bedsides. These are available in the waxed mahogany finish, antique white or antique white with real gold leaf highlights.
So lets say you pick a plainer bed such as the Sleigh Bed, the Louis Bed, the Elegance Rattan Bed or the French Brodsworth Sleigh Bed which mahogany bedside table do you pick?
The 2 Drawer Bedside (BS007) is a great choice. This bedside features intricate hand carving on both drawers and beautifully shaped legs giving a French look. Following on with the French theme the French Round Bedside (BS025) features even more ornate hand carving, panelled sides and a rattan panelled cupboard door. The Antoinette French Bedside (CFR0001) also features rattan but is a larger bedside offering more storage space
If you prefer a more traditional style then the Chippendale Bedside (BS031) could be a good choice. This bedside features intricate floral and twisted pillar detailing and the trademark ball and claw feet.
If you would like your bed to be the statement piece in your bedroom such as the Versailles Carved Bird Bed, the French Arch Bed, the Empire Bed or the Venetian Four Poster Bed then which mahogany bedside cabinets do you choose?
The straight forward choice would be the Sleigh or Louis Philippe bedsides with both offering simple straight lines. Other choices however could be the Elegance Bedside (BS016) which offers a single drawer, a low shelf and a drawing slide to put your cup of tea on! The French Bedside (BS012) and the Normandy Bedside (BS033) both offer a simple French feel with elegantly shaped legs and fine hand carved detailing.
You can of course mix colours as well as styles. Maybe a mahogany bed with antique white bedsides or vice versa.
