Description:
It is rare to see period tables constructed in cherry wood; they are usually oak or mahogany. The table boasts a twin-plank top, above a single flush working drawer. The drawer retains the original brass swan neck handles & escutcheon and is decorated with simple scribe moulding. The pine-lined drawer is constructed with primitive hand dovetail joints. The drawer runs smoothly and closes flush to the frame. Below the drawer, the table features a straight apron. The table is raised on four straight, tapering block legs. The table features the original top and backboard to the rear; the frame has been constructed in the traditional joined manner for that period. The item is solid in joint and ready to use.
Condition Report:
This table is in excellent original condition, considering its age. Nominal old use marks to the leading edges, top and inside of drawer (see photos), but nothing significant considering the age of the item (see photos). There has been a very old repair to the back-left corner of the top (see photo). The drawer is in good working order and closes flush to the frame. The drawer retains the original brass swan neck handle on circular escutcheon. There are no breaks to the frame or legs. The frame has been constructed in the traditional joined manner. As the table boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic mellow colour and patination. This table is well constructed, solid in joint and ready to use.
