Sizes
One of the most significant criteria for choosing a table — its size. It depends on it, how convenient it will be to sit at it and store all sorts of cosmetic and household items.
The height of the table should not be less than 75 cm. This parameter is chosen depending on the height of the hostess and the length of the product itself (the smaller it is — the higher the table). Most often the maximum height of tables reaches 80 cm.
The minimum width of furniture is 26 cm. This parameter is worth paying special attention to, because it depends on the convenience of placing cosmetics on the table top.
The length is determined by the size of the bedroom. It also depends on the design features of the table: whether it has built-in light bulbs or drawers, their number and size. An important factor is the adjoining mirror: its width should not exceed the length of the table. The minimum length of the table is considered 45 cm.
Types of constructions
