from around 1900, with a swiveling tabletop
in a cloverleaf shape and four
shelves that only become visible
when the tabletop is slightly
lifted and rotated. It then locks
into place between the four shelves.
The table base is in the Art Deco
style, though it also recalls a Shaker style.
All in solid oak with
beautiful radial
oak veneer on the tabletop.

Inside the table frame is a
drawer, either for games
or for sewing supplies.
It seems as though the lady of the house
at that time, in addition to her
sewing, also had time for a
game of bridge or other games for four.

Of course, the table also makes a lovely
little coffee or
tea table.

Dimensions are:
Standard: Diameter 67.5 x H 78.5 cm
Knee height 59.5 cm
As a game table: Diameter 85 x H 76 cm
The legs cannot be unscrewed
.

Condition:
The table has only minimal, normal
wear and tear, but is generally
still in almost very good condition. See less
