Early Victorian Occasional Table

Early Victorian occasional table with rectangular 6.5 inches “box” top with rounded corners and a single drawer. The top of the table has burlwood veneer and measures 23.5 inches long by 19" wide. The drawer has a single keyhole with a brass lock and is 4" deep. The table is 28" tall and stands on a tapered octagonal base of burlwood veneered pine. The in-swept triangular platform base rests on inverted "mushroom cap" style feet. The drawer front is made of pine with a burlwood veneer and the base and sides of the drawer are made of pine with large uneven dovetails. The drawer lock looks like a simple skeleton key will open the brass lock. There are two large screws underneath the top and the brass locking mechanism has four screws in it with a deadbolt mechanism that must "lock" into a groove carved out of the wood in the top of the table. The drawer is exposed on the bottom -- there is no base
