    Nice table I found locally. Seller wants $100 which is more than I’d like to pay but I love the drawer in the middle. No clue how it’s best described to find some comps? Guessing it’s first quarter 19th c? Don’t have better/more photos.

    I think you meant last quarter of the 19th century . :) Its a nice table,but Im sure you can find one cheaper than that as they were mass produced . That being said,if you love it then buy it and enjoy it.

    Ha, I actually really did mean to write first quarter 20th. So I was still wrong but wrong in a different way. Was running out to a sale while typing. You’re right about price. I just really like the drawer hardware and look of the drawer. I haven’t seen this configuration much. It’s the last thing in the world I need and it would be hard to spin an eventual profit at that price most likely so I guess I’ll pass unless price goes down a good bit. What would be the best way to describe it stylistically?

    Id call it Eastlake wich has turned into sort of a generic term .

    It is Eastlakeyish so I guess that works. Saw the term used generically in local auction listings recently.

    Something looks off about this. Don't think the drawer is original to the table.
