It stands 550mm high, 450mm wide and 400mm deep — a small piece that is meant to sit tight against the side of a bed rather than fill a corner. It belongs to the Acton range at our Ballincollig showroom, and we can have it out for you to pull both drawers before you decide anything.

Beside a deep divan set, where the mattress top can sit at 650mm or more, you will be reaching down for the lamp switch rather than across. The top is 450 by 400mm, which is honest about what it holds: a lamp and a book, not a lamp and a book and a glass and a tablet at once. Most people take two, one each side, and the black reads as a deliberate dark note in a light room rather than something trying to disappear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#571f32\"\u003eChosen by Paul\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePaul says:\u003c\/em\u003e “Bring the base measurement of your lamp with you.

Twenty minutes with it in front of you settles both. We are at Heritage Walk, The Quadrants, Ballincollig, Co. Cork (P31 W968), open seven days a week, no appointment needed, and nobody will hurry you. We rearrange the showroom constantly and only part of the range is up at any one time, so ask for this bedside by name when you arrive — if it is not out we will bring it up from the store room, and if we are short of one we will have it in within a few days.

Rubber wood is a timber, so it gives off and takes back a little moisture across the heating season; small movement in a joint is normal and settles. Black shows dust and fingerprints more plainly than a pale finish, so keep a dry soft cloth in the drawer and give the top a wipe when you change the bed. Do not stand it hard against a radiator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEPTEMBER OFFER BLOCK — insert here when the Bedroom Event pricing is confirmed; remove on 1 October.
