Noir Side Chest

The Block Noir Side Chest makes no apologies. Wide, low, and finished in a deep charcoal black, it sits in a room with the settled authority of architecture — a piece that is as much about presence as it is about function.

Its front panels are deeply carved with a geometric repeat — a grid of recessed squares that gives the surface texture and shadow, changing character as the light shifts across it through the day. This kind of relief carving is a craft that demands both precision and patience: each panel cut by hand, each depth calibrated to hold the darkness in the right way. Two doors open to reveal generous interior storage, keeping the bedside — or any surface it inhabits — clear and uncluttered.

The Block Noir works at the bedside of a large bed, as a media cabinet in a sitting room, or as a statement storage chest at the foot of a bed. Wherever it is placed, it anchors the room with a weight and confidence that very few pieces achieve.
