Is it possible to find nightstands by width, height and length?

Furniture Ferret: Finding nightstands in search engines on the Internet by size is not straightforward as search engines are best at finding words only. Also, when searching for nightstands to fit a given space, somewhat shallower items would also fit. Even if some outlets allow searching for nightstands by size, searching many websites at the same time needs a different solution. We scour many websites and list tens of thousands of products so you are able to find the one that is just perfect.

How to measure the space to fit a nightstand in?

Furniture Ferret: Measure the width and the depth of the floor area where you'd like to place a nightstand. The easiest way is to use a measuring tape. Hold the start of the tape down at the edge of the area, and let it run to the other edge. Make sure the tape is not diagonal, or else you get a value larger than the reality. If the distance is larger than what you can stretch to, ask a friend to assist, or split what you need to measure into multiple parts. This can be done by either holding the tape down halfway and continuing running it while letting the first end go, or by marking how far you have measured on the floor or wall, and start a new measurement. If you would not like to make a mark on the floor, you can position a pointy object like a screwdriver there instead. Make sure to avoid dead places where the piece of furniture won't be able to go like decorative strips. Also it may be necessary to take the height of the space and the item into account wherever the ceiling is uneven like in loft rooms.

From the history of furniture: Old-fashioned bedsteads Part 5

Since the above statement was first published, about a year ago, I have received letters from three people who own these field beds. In two cases the old curtains are with the beds, one set being netted and one of chintz, with a design of peacocks on it. None of them are of mahogany, and the owner of one specifies hers as being of maple.

They were fashionable in England as well as here, for those great makers — Chippendale, Hepplewhite, and Sheraton — designed patterns for them, each mak ing the curve of the " sweep," as the frame which held the netting was called, a little different.

There is no doubt that many such beds were imported, and it was from these that our native makers copied. In the "Journeyman's Cabinet and Chair-maker's Philadelphia Book of Prices," 1795, which has been before quoted, I find the cost of making "a field bedstead of poplar, the roof sloped each way, one pound. If of buttomvood, two shillings extra." "A field bed of mahogany, one pound, four shillings, six pence." As a matter of fact, the field beds cost a little more than the four-post mahogany, these latter being listed at one pound, four shillings, sixpence. Probably the extra work on the Sweeps was the cause of the extra price.

The bed shown in Figure 213 is of mahogany, with ornaments at the top of the gracefully turned posts. The ornamental brasses that covered the holes through which the screws were put to hold the bed together are all in place, two on each foot-post, one on each head-post. They are in most cases of pressed brass, in a rosette pattern, and should be found on high and low four-post beds, and on field beds. In many cases, un fortunately, they are missing. This bed has a plain Sweep, and is covered with the netting work, which was so much prettier than cloth drapery.

Our philosophy

We strive to allow everyone to live comfortably even if they only have a small space they call home. We scan dozens of online shops for thousands of desks, cabinets, bookshelves, shoe cabinets, beds, armchairs and more by size and colour, to find just the right piece to go next to the bed and turn the room into some closet space, or to find that extra long bed that is still narrow enough to squeeze through the door. From the kitchen to the bathroom, don't live around furniture - have furniture that lives with you.

Did you know? We also help customers in many other regions. You can look for 24 inch deep nightstands in the US or 60cm deep bedside tables in Australia.
