For your consideration are a 19th Century French Louis XV Style Chevet Side Table and a Hepplewhite Federal Era Mahogany Side Table, early 19th Century New England. Ex-Boston area estate collection. The early 19th century French Louis XV style wooden bedside table features a three-quarter gallery, open shelf and cabriole legs. This French Louis XV style 'table de chevet', a bedside table or nightstand, features a rectangular top surrounded by a three-quarter scalloped edged gallery, sitting above an open shelf offering a convenient storage area. The table is raised on four elegant slender cabriole legs, reminding us of the taste for curvy lines of the Louis XV period.

Hand-grasp side cut-outs facilitate portability and placement. Remarkably lightweight but structurally sound and steady. A rich patina observed throughout. Lower portion of rear panel missing.
