Melia Small Bedside Table | S25496
Melia small bedside table employs white cedar construction with waxed finish protecting against water rings and surface scratches - practical considerations for surfaces supporting morning coffee, evening water glasses, the accumulated small objects of bedside living.
Two drawers plus alcove provide tiered storage: drawers concealing items requiring privacy or order, alcove displaying books currently reading, housing table lamps, holding phones charging overnight. The configuration balances hidden and visible storage, acknowledging that bedside tables serve both functional and display purposes.
White cedar carries particular qualities: lightweight relative to hardwoods, natural resistance to moisture and insect damage, pleasant aromatic presence lingering subtly in bedrooms. The wood ages gracefully, developing patina through use rather than appearing damaged by time. Waxed finish enhances grain visibility whilst providing defensive layer against inevitable wear.
Arrives fully assembled - unbox, position, use. No instruction manuals, no missing hardware discovered mid-assembly, no weekend afternoons sacrificed to furniture construction. The convenience matters more than specification sheets acknowledge, particularly for those lacking tools, patience, or spatial reasoning required for flat-pack furniture.
Cedar's aromatic qualities benefit bedrooms specifically. The scent - subtle, slightly sweet, distinctly woody - creates olfactory atmosphere alongside visual presence. Not aggressive perfume but gentle background note improving air quality naturally, repelling moths and insects without chemical interventions.

Botanical Prints: From Pressed Specimens To Contemporary Wallpaper
Botanical illustration began as scientific documentation, artists translating three-dimensional plants into flat images serving both informational and aesthetic purposes. This exploration traces the journey from pressed herbarium specimens and watercolour expeditions to contemporary wallpaper, examining how printing techniques evolved from copperplate engraving through William Morris' screen printing to digital reproduction whilst maintaining essential character: beauty emerging from accuracy rather than imposed upon it.

Woven Ground: The Cultural Geography of Handmade Rugs
Handwoven rugs carry geography in their fibres. The wool came from specific mountains where specific plants fed specific sheep; the dyes derive from regional botanicals; the patterns preserve cultural memory encoded in visual language. From Persian workshop medallions to Berber mountain abstractions to Scandinavian restraint, each tradition represents centuries of accumulated knowledge, techniques refined through generations. This investigation explores how materials shaped by landscape, methods passed like recipes, and patterns carrying meaning beyond decoration create the ground beneath our feet.
