Dimensions: height 35 cm, width 61 cm, depth 37.5 cm.

The table stands on two solid side panels, leaving a pleasing open space beneath the top. A single generous drawer runs the full width and is finished with an original metal handle.

Today, this piece works beautifully as a compact writing desk or low console, and also as a display surface for ceramics, ikebana, a plant, or a still life. The drawer is ideal for keeping small items neatly out of sight: pens, paper, notes, tea accessories, remotes, or everyday essentials.

Condition: good, honest condition with light wear and patina consistent with age. See less
