dBodhi Ace Side Table

The dBodhi Ace Side Table is the smaller of two sizes at 45cm square and 55cm high, in reclaimed heritage teak with the range's carved design surface. The height suits it to sitting beside a chair or a bed. It is built to be used daily.

Fifty-five centimetres is the height that matters here. That is roughly arm height from a seated position, so a drink or a book placed on it is reachable without leaning, which is precisely what a side table is for and what a lower coffee-table height fails to do.

At 45cm square the footprint is small enough to slot beside an armchair without intruding into the walkway, or beside a bed where a full bedside cabinet would not fit. The carved design surface gives it presence at close range, which matters more on a side table than a coffee table because you are looking at it from a metre away rather than across a room. Reclaimed heritage teak ages gracefully rather than wearing out.
