Description from the seller
There are pieces that guard the living memory of homes from another era, and this exquisite folding auxiliary side table, or servicing waiter, born in the second half of the 20th century, is a clear example of it. Conceived to accompany sobremesa moments and warm conversations, its scissor frame is made entirely of brass, equipped with an original system of side chains that allow its opening to be regulated with complete safety.
At the top sits a practical fully removable tray, provided with an elegant molded border and delicate brass handles. The central back, made of wood with a warm and deep grain, has witnessed countless family gatherings and intimate celebrations.
Condition and details to note:
The piece is in good overall condition of use, preserving all its functionality and that beautiful patina that time lovingly grants to noble metals. As detailed in the photographic reportage, it presents:
Light stains and superficial marks on the brass that tell its story and authenticity.
A subtle color variation in the wood that borders the tray frame.
These small traces of the passing of years only enhance its vintage soul and its genuine character, ready to continue filling a new corner with warmth and history.
