Designed by Pierre Jeanneret for the student residences of Panjab University in Chandigarh, these two bedside tables retain their original institutional stencils, P.U.P.10 / B. HOSTEL 117/C and P.U.P.10 / B. HOSTEL 118/C, placing them within the Boys’ Hostel inventory. They are offered as a matched pair.

Each table is constructed in solid teak. The body comprises one open shelf above a single drawer, fitted with a circular cutout routed directly into the drawer face. Each unit stands on four outward-splayed legs. The form is among the most recognizable of the Chandigarh residential program.

The teak has developed a dense, warm patina consistent with more than sixty years of use. Both stencils remain intact. Offered as found.Lightly cleaned and unrestored.
