Featuring bold curves, rich burl walnut veneer, ornate gilt wood accents, and beautifully shaped original beveled marble tops, these nightstands reflect the fine artistry of Italian furniture makers during the Belle Époque period.

Each cabinet includes a hidden drawer inside the door, elegant ormolu-style gilt detailing, and striking marble tops with natural veining in rosy terracotta, taupe, and cream tones. These pieces are ideal as nightstands, end tables, or statement accents in a refined traditional interior.

Beneath each marble top is an original Italian customs label dated August 13, 1934, issued by the Lodi Office near Milan. This label confirms the nightstands were in transit—likely for export or resale—by that date. The label reads in part:

CONSUMER POSTAL POST – MILAN
GOODS IN DISPUTE OR PREVIOUS TARE
Date: 13 AGQ 1934
No. 577914 – Do not detach except after the perf

Additionally, the underside of each marble top is stamped “AMERICA”, indicating the pieces were intended for export to the United States. This type of marking was commonly applied at the time of export—not manufacture—and aligns with U.S. import labeling laws in place during the early 20th century.

These markings further authenticate the set’s early origin and transatlantic journey, adding historical value for collectors.
