How to choose a nightstand

Nightstand height beside the mattress, width, and ceramic bedside tables. Practical tips for a handmade bedroom nightstand.

nightstand beside the bed

A nightstand is not a mini dresser. A nightstand is a table beside the bed: lamp, book, glass. Too tall and the lamp hits the headboard. Too low and the phone drops off the mattress. This guide helps you choose a ceramic nightstand.

Nightstand height

Align the nightstand top with the mattress, usually 50–60 cm. A 40–55 cm width fits a lamp and a book. A slimmer nightstand is only for very tight bedrooms. A pair of nightstands does not need the same pattern — they need the same height.

Ceramic tables beside the bed

Ceramic tables beside the bed handle cream, a glass and dust. Wipe a ceramic nightstand with a damp cloth. A mirror nightstand returns lamplight. A Mono nightstand stays quiet. A Mosaic nightstand brings colour and remains a ceramic table.
