How dual pricing works: If a buyer hits Buy Now, the auction closes and current bidders receive an automatic notification with the option to top the Buy-Now price next time. The seller of this lot has chosen to keep Buy Now active throughout — some lots disable Buy Now after the first bid (you'll see "Buy Now closed" on the card).
Solid rosewood case, professionally restored 2024
Original 8-day mechanical movement, recently serviced
A charming vintage wooden table featuring two drawers and twin drop-leaf extensions on either side, allowing it to be used as a compact desk or extended as a serving or occasional table. The pedestal-style base includes beautifully turned legs and stretcher detail, suggesting a late 20th-century reproduction of an antique Regency or Georgian-style drop-leaf desk.
The white painted finish gives it a modern cottage, farmhouse, or French provincial look. It appears to have been refinished, making it highly decorative and suitable for use as a writing desk, hallway console, or vanity. The brass foot caps on the legs are a traditional design element, adding a touch of elegance.
