Neoclassical Style Burl Walnut Inlay Side Table
A transitional or Neoclassical style accent/side table featuring a rectangular top with an inset burl walnut panel and a string inlay border. The piece is constructed primarily of walnut or a similar fine hardwood with a rich, honey-toned finish. The single drawer front displays a matching book-matched burl veneer face, centered by a circular brass drop-ring pull with an embossed floral or rosette backplate. Flanking the drawer are marquetry medallions depicting stylized sunbursts or fans. The architecture is supported by four tapered, turned legs with subtle ring-and-ball detailing, reminiscent of bamboo or Sheraton-style turnings, joined by an X-frame cross stretcher for structural stability. The craftsmanship suggests a high-quality reproduction piece, likely from the mid-to-late 20th century. The condition appears fair to good; there is visible surface wear including a few small scratches on the top and minor abrasions along the lower edges of the legs. The patina on the brass hardware shows slight oxidation consistent with age. No maker's mark is visible in the provided image, but the precision of the veneer work indicates skilled manufacture. The overall aesthetic blends English Regency and Federal period elements, making it a versatile decorative furniture item.
