The top offers ample space for paperwork, a book, or a small arrangement, and it rests on a solid base with straight legs and connecting stretchers that keep the piece stable and clean-lined.

Dimensions: height 24.5 cm, width 65.5 cm, depth 34.5 cm.

The finish is dark and rich, with gentle signs of use along the edges and across the surface. Subtle wear, fine scratches, and tonal variations give the wood warmth without feeling busy. In a contemporary interior, it works effortlessly as a low desk, a side table next to a sofa, or a calm display stand for ceramics.

Condition: very good, sturdy condition with normal signs of use and light wear consistent with age. See less
