Mcm Rolling Cart Appraisal

Vintage MCM Wood Rolling Side Table/Tea Bar/Plant Cart w/ Black Top

This item is a vintage Mid-Century Modern (MCM) rolling side table, tea bar, or plant cart. It is constructed primarily of wood with a warm, medium-brown finish, exhibiting visible wood grain throughout its structure. The table features a rectangular top surface, which appears to be a contrasting black material, possibly laminate, slate, or a dark-stained wood, set within a raised wooden frame. Below the main tabletop, there is a recessed lower shelf, also rectangular and appearing to be made of the same black material, providing additional storage or display space. The table stands on four sturdy legs, each tapering slightly downwards and fitted with small, dark-colored caster wheels, enabling easy mobility. The legs are joined to the main frame and to each other by horizontal stretchers, forming a robust and stable base. The overall design is clean and functional, characteristic of the MCM aesthetic with its emphasis on simple lines and practicality. There are no obvious signs of significant damage such as large cracks or breaks, but typical wear commensurate with its age, such as minor scratches, scuffs to the wood finish, and potential dulling or surface wear on the black top and bottom shelf, would be expected. No specific maker's marks or signatures are discernible from the provided image. The craftsmanship appears to be solid, indicating a well-built piece of furniture designed for everyday use.
