Description
Ballet is a term that evokes the feeling of lightness associated with the dance form. The lightweight ballet side table captures this same sense of weightlessness, with its lacquered tabletop resting atop delicate metal legs. Designed by world renowned studio, Doshi Levien, with the development overseen personally by Jonathan Levien, this side table is intimately detailed to create a stunning focal point for your living space. From the sleek laser cut base, to the hand finished top, every design detail has been painstakingly conceived from inception to manufacture. The steel base is finished in a super matt textured coating that gives a soft contemporary edge, while a super matt hand painted polyurethane top surface gives the table a quality finish. Open Home is a furniture collection designed by Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien for John Lewis. The collection responds to the growing trend of fluid and open living spaces. Activities such as resting, dining, working, cooking and entertaining are merging in most modern homes so that spaces become more flexible in their purpose, as do the objects that inhabit them. The collection consists of elements that can define a sense of place within an open living environment. Doshi Levien’s collection has a warm yet modern identity, combining high quality materials and sensual forms.

A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
