This pair of Bauhaus nightstands by the Czechoslovakian manufacturer Mücke-Melder, dating from the 1930s, exemplifies the classic combination of walnut veneer and chromed tubular steel. The fronts, made of warm, medium-dark walnut veneer with a pronounced natural grain, are finished with a satin sheen that enhances the depth and movement of the wood. The chromed frame, with smoothly bent, seamless corners, forms both the legs and the structure of the cantilevered upper shelf. Each nightstand features a rectangular body with a single door and a minimalist, rectangular chrome handle. The design emphasizes geometric simplicity and functional form, hallmarks of the Bauhaus aesthetic; the proportions are balanced and the details carefully executed. Condition: the nightstands have undergone a full restoration, with smooth, even wood surfaces and highly polished chrome elements—there are no visible signs of wear, damage, or repairs, and the overall state is excellent.The form and materials of these nightstands echo the modernist ideals of the 1930s, when functionality met the new possibilities of industrial materials. The chromed steel reflects cool light, set against the warmth of walnut, as if telling the story of an era that valued progress and clarity of design. The gently offset shelf and the rhythm of the bent tubular frame impart a sense of lightness—the nightstands seem to whisper of spaces where avant-garde was everyday, and every detail had its rationale.These nightstands can be paired with a steel-framed bed or an upholstered headboard to highlight the material contrast. They work well with simple Bauhaus-style lamps, minimalist textiles, and graphite or cream-colored walls. In a bedroom with a collector’s or modernist ambiance, they could be combined with a geometric rug or a single period armchair, allowing the chromed accents and the wood grain to become the focal point of the arrangement.
