Peasant Old Elm Bedside Table

Peasant Old Elm Bedside Table | Online8 New Zealand

Roughly 80 years in the making — this bedside table is built from solid reclaimed elm that has already lived one life, now finished in a soft grey wash. The unusual pairing of two doors plus a drawer gives you genuinely useful storage: small items in the drawer, taller things in the cabinet a normal bedside drawer could never hold. Because the elm is authentically salvaged, expect natural variation in grain and tone, so no two tables are alike.

Why It Stands Apart

• Reclaimed Elm (~80 years old): Genuinely salvaged timber that has already had one life, with all the character that brings.
• Two Doors Plus a Drawer: Small items in the drawer, taller ones in the cabinet behind the doors.
• Grey Wash Finish: Softens the reclaimed timber without hiding its grain.
• Slim 350mm Depth: Fits a narrow gap beside the bed.
• Arrives Assembled: No building required.

Frequently Asked Questions

How old is the timber?
The elm is genuinely reclaimed and roughly 80 years old. It carries nail holes, saw marks, and tonal shifts from its first life — those aren't faults, they're why reclaimed timber is valued, and they make each piece unique.

Will it be the right height for my bed?
At 700mm it's on the taller side, suiting deep mattresses and bases on 15cm legs. Beside a low platform bed it will stand above the mattress top.

How much clearance do the doors need?
They swing outward, so allow room in front for them to open — worth checking if the bed sits close alongside.

Will each table look the same?
No. Reclaimed elm varies genuinely from piece to piece, and the grey wash lets that variation show rather than covering it.
