The Carrel Side Table, offered in a gray or white version of Villa & House’s signature eggshell lacquer finish, harkens back to the Ming Dynasty’s design vocabulary – particularly the chow leg. Notice that the negative space is cut on an angle instead of perpendicular, creating a sculpturally grounding side table. The Carrel holds a significant presence in a room, and the added glass shelf – held by nearly invisible metal pins – brings a level of practicality without weighing down the design. With an oval-shaped tabletop, the Carrel Side Table would be appropriate floated in a living room as a moment of reprieve next to an ornate couch, nestled next to a four-poster bed, or situated in a reading nook with neatly arranged magazines.
The standout features of the Carrel Side Table are the marriage of our sophisticated eggshell finish – a classical technique where an artisan adheres tiny pieces of eggshells in a puzzle-like pattern before layering lacquer – with a sculptural and unique shape.
