The narrow proportions and architectural construction give it considerably more character than the typical occasional table, while the raised gallery around the top makes the surface particularly practical beside upholstered seating.

This is one of those pieces designed around the rituals of actually using a room. At less than ten inches deep, it can slip beside a reading chair or sofa where almost nothing else will fit: a drink or small lamp on top, reading glasses tucked into the drawer, and the day's newspapers, magazines, or a few favorite books below. The combination of walnut and faux bamboo works naturally with English country furnishings, but would be equally convincing among wicker and botanical prints in a Palm Beach sitting room.
