The black bodies contrast beautifully with the drawer fronts finished in striking burl veneer, featuring an irregular grain pattern in warm honey-brown and caramel tones. The round tops soften the overall silhouette, while the small black handles emphasise the clean, geometric design.

Each cabinet features two spacious drawers and an open compartment, ideal for keeping books and everyday essentials close at hand. The tables stand on castors, making them easy to move when needed. Their solid construction and substantial weight reflect the quality of their manufacture.

The combination of deep black surfaces and expressive wood grain gives these bedside tables an elegant yet distinctive character. They pair beautifully with upholstered beds, velvet, leather, wool textiles and accessories in metal or glass. They would work particularly well in contemporary bedrooms, postmodern interiors and eclectic spaces inspired by late 20th-century Italian design.

Both tables are in good vintage condition, with minor signs of use, mainly on the black surfaces and around the lower edges of the cabinets. The tops have small scratches that are most visible in certain lighting conditions. The burl veneer drawer fronts have retained their beautiful, distinctive grain.

The Seryo model was designed by Umberto Asnago for the Italian furniture brand Giorgetti in the 1990s. Giorgetti is renowned for its high-quality craftsmanship and its approach to contemporary furniture rooted in Italian design tradition. See less
