Bedroom Furniture Names: Glossary to Clear Up the Jargon
In general, a standard bedroom set consists of three to four pieces: the bed, a nightstand and a dresser. The fourth piece may be an additional nightstand or a mirror for the dresser. Standard sets are sold together and usually offer savings over buying pieces separately.

Finally, there’s sleigh beds, which have a focal point headboard and footboard resembling an old-fashioned sleigh. Bed sizes range from California King size.

Nightstand
A small storage functionality unit placed next to the bed, also called a bedside table. Usually adorned with bedroom decor.
