In today's decor pedestal

In today's decor pedestal - The pedestal is a type of small side table size and height and one foot. The pedestal was designed in the seventeenth century and was used to place candles on them to illuminate the rooms, also in these tables tea was served to the guests.

In the decoration present call pedestal not only this kind of table of one foot, classic in design or not, but any object that can serve as support for a sofa or chair to drink as much for reading, for example , so we find them accompanied by floor lamps and there are some models that integrate such lighting. If you take it out of the living, natural space, can serve perfectly as a nightstand full of style.

How can you retrieve an old nightstand? pickling and painting it white, putting her glass top, combining two different colors on the leg and on (or back, i.e. the top), or painting stripes in black and white to give it a contemporary edge.

Another current trend is to give importance to the pedestal and not place as auxiliary furniture, but occupying a wall to "bear the weight" a visual or actual artwork or a decorative piece of singular importance: a great picture.

In almost every house has a nightstand inheritance, but a piece that does not have enough years to be old can always use to give that layer of "lived" that combines so well with the current style, which in its most modern spaces as lacquer and becomes a piece of steel and glass, with colors black, white, vitamin or metal.

Anything goes for a piece those four centuries ago is still essential.
