Luxurious pair of two wooden French Art Nouveau nightstands or bedside tables by Paul Alexandre Dumas. Beautifully designed with typical Art Nouveau organic lines. The cabinets have carvings of leaves and fruit and bronze hardware decorated with the same leaves. Both cabinets have a drawer under the rich pink and gray marble top. One cabinet is open with two shelves and the other has a door with a space where people used to store their chamber pot. One of the marble tops was broken but has been professionally and barely visible repaired.
