Spain, circa 1720
Single plank top and frieze drawer with exceptionally fine figuring. The drawer is designed to opened from underneath so that a knob or handle does not detract from the beautiful figuring. The shaping of the frieze softens the form.
The form of the legs and stretchers are pared down to emphasize the fine grain of the chestnut. Exceptional original color and patina, first half of the 18th century.
