Two full length drawers have carved panel fronts with dual brass drawer handles. Serpentine carved lower apron and carved French cabriole legs. Solid construction, lovely oak finish and grain, dovetail drawers, well built by craftsmen of the period. Circa1920.

NOTE: All of our antiques are direct from Europe. I personally select each item for the quality, design and unique characteristics that you will always find in our distinctive inventory at Geaux Vintage Antiques. …” with all that, why ‘Geaux’ anywhere else?” …

Cracks on left & right side of slant front and one side. Green felt not original. Included multiple photos should be considered as an integral part of the description.


Shipping: Due to the larger size, this item requires freight service. White glove service, fully insured, FOB Shreveport, delivered and placed inside your home (first floor only). Typically, 5-7 weeks, depending on your location. Free pick-up is also available at our location in Shreveport, LA. Please contact Geaux Vintage Antiques with any questions or for more photos!
