A typical Mid-Century design with clean lines and minimalist metal, but also the warmth and coziness of the wood veneer.

Both cabinets have 2 drawers (the tall one has one fake drawer, the lower one) and the table top has more than enough space for your nightlight, alarm clock and some cute accessories.
Or style it with plants and a luxurious photo book…plenty of options!

The tables are very sturdy and the drawers work like a charm.
Also perfect as side table, drinks table, TV cabinet, plant table, record/audio table.

The cabinets are not marked, but are European and most likely made by the iconic Belgium Meurop.
Meurop (Belgium, 1958-1980) was a famous Belgian furniture manufacturer with a focus on modern and affordable design.
During the 1960s, Meurop experienced its peak and had stores in several European countries.
Meurop was well known for the designs by Pierre Guariche. He brought a functionalist dimension to furniture without ever forgetting the aesthetic approach.
His creations have become legendary pieces, such as the Meuroplan series, the Tonneau and Tulipe chair and the Président desk.
Because of its aesthetic and historical value, Meurop furniture remains popular with collectors.
