Oberon Crescent Marble Bedside - Matt Black Marble - Matt Dark Oak

The Oberon Crescent Marble Bedside in Matt Black Marble pairs a black stone top with a matt dark oak veneer base. The drawer interior measures 285mm by 320mm by 95mm, and the legs are 340mm apart. It ships fully assembled.

Black marble on dark oak is the version with no contrast in it at all, and that is the appeal. The piece reads as one dark mass beside a bed, which against pale bedding becomes a deliberate punctuation rather than a piece of furniture asking to be noticed.

Dark stone hides marks and shows dust, which is the trade you accept in exchange for the drama. It also makes the crescent silhouette read more clearly than a pale finish would, since the shape is defined by its outline rather than by the light falling across it. The drawer at 95mm internal height is shallow; the 370mm of open leg beneath the case is where the piece earns its lightness. Both sealers are matched to their material, resin on the stone and water-based on the veneer.
