Crafted from solid hardwood, likely maple, this charming table features a hand-planed rectangular top, a dovetailed single full-width drawer, and classic tapered square legs. Decorative diamond inlay panels accent the apron, a detail often seen in Federal-era regional furniture.

The drawer retains its original shield-shaped iron escutcheon and ring pull. The surface shows rich, authentic patina with age-appropriate wear, ink marks, and surface scratches consistent with over a century of use, adding to its character and historical appeal.
