Description from the seller
Solid Wood Carved Work Table with Two Drawers, Europe, 1960s
This solid wood work table was produced in Europe during the 1960s and reflects the continuation of traditional woodworking within a mid-20th-century domestic context. The piece is defined by carved side supports, shaped feet, and a central stretcher that provides structural stability. Two drawers integrated into the apron offer practical storage, indicating intended use as a small work or utility table rather than a purely decorative furnishing. The proportions are compact yet functional, suitable for writing, light manual work, or ancillary household use.
