1940s Nightstand For Sale on 1stDibs

With a vast inventory of beautiful furniture at 1stDibs, we’ve got just the 1940s nightstand you’re looking for. A 1940s nightstand — often made from wood, metal and brass — can elevate any home. Whether you’re looking for an older or newer 1940s nightstand, there are earlier versions available from the 20th Century and newer variations made as recently as the 20th Century. A 1940s nightstand is a generally popular piece of furniture, but those created in Mid-Century Modern, Art Deco and Louis XV styles are sought with frequency. Paul Frankl, Edward Wormley and Grosfeld House each produced at least one beautiful 1940s nightstand that is worth considering.

Finding the Right Night-stands for You

Nightstands, which are pieces of bedroom furniture that are often just small bedside tables, are traditionally designed with functionality in mind. Prior to the advent of indoor plumbing, early nightstands contained a porcelain chamber pot in a cabinet that provided a convenient and private alternative to visiting the outhouse. The antique and vintage nightstands in so many homes today are typically low-profile tables that are positioned alongside one’s bed or elsewhere in a bedroom.

A nightstand is mainly used to store or support objects that may be needed at night, such as a phone, a book or a small carafe of water. But this table can easily be personalized. "I’ve got a huge vintage lamp, and when I’m lucky, I’ll have fresh flowers in a bud vase," Chicago interior designer Summer Thornton tells 1stDibs about styling a nightstand.

Whether you take a minimalist approach to bedside table decor or prefer a set of two nightstands topped with stacks of books and other essentials that you'd like to have at arm's length — this furniture can also change the look and feel of a bedroom, rendering any interior more comfortable and cozy.

Practicality plays a prominent role in perfecting your bedside space, but the decision to furnish your bedroom with a cherrywood mid-century modern nightstand or an antique mahogany piece can have an impact on how you start your day.

Take the first step in setting the perfect tone of your morning — find vintage Art Deco nightstands, burl-wood nightstands, oak nightstands, three-drawer nightstands and other nightstands for sale on 1stDibs.
