Rattan Top Bedside Table — Three Drawers — CharlesTed Home
Handwoven rattan top, whitewashed durian wood, three curved drawers with antique ring pulls — the bedside table that turns a bedroom surface into something worth noticing.
The rattan top is what makes this bedside table genuinely distinctive. Where most three-drawer nightstands offer a plain timber or painted surface, the handwoven rattan across the top introduces organic texture at exactly the point you look at most — the surface where a lamp, a book and a glass of water sit every evening. Against the soft whitewashed durian wood frame and the curved drawer fronts with their antique black ring pulls, it creates a piece with real material layering — wood, rattan, aged metal — that reads as considered and handcrafted rather than simply functional.
What sets it apart
The detail that makes it different
The combination of a rattan top on a wood-framed chest of drawers is a relatively unusual one — and that rarity is precisely what gives this piece its character. The woven surface adds a warmth and depth that a plain timber top cannot replicate, while the whitewash finish on the durian wood keeps the overall effect light and airy rather than heavy or rustic. The subtly curved drawer fronts are a refined detail that distinguishes the piece from flat-fronted alternatives at the same scale — the gentle convex profile adds a softness and movement to the front of the chest that makes it more interesting from every angle. The antique black ring pulls complete the palette — dark metal against pale whitewash and natural rattan.
