Table is made of pine wood and has a rectangular top with rounded edges, made of plywood with a clear, walnut-colored finish.

Piece has a drawer with an elegant, carved pull-handle: (H:5 cm x W: 26cm x D: 27.5 cm), which opens and closes properly. There are some light, old marks of usage inside (see photo.)

Piece is in overall good, original vintage condition with some marks and signs of usage on the top, legs and overall structure.
There are some faded areas of color on the top. The legs are solid, stable and are of a style typical of the reconstruction period, which was about elegant, practical and simple design.

It has been simply cleaned and polished with flaxseed oil with respect to the beautiful, original patina.

This table is a survivor, unlike many others made during the same era, that were cast aside over time. See less
