Tole-Painted Drop-Leaf Trestle Table
This is a small, decorative wooden drop-leaf table featuring folk-art inspired tole painting. The piece is constructed with a narrow rectangular top flanked by two semi-circular drop leaves. It is supported by a dark green or black trestle-style base with two flat vertical legs connected by an integrated lower shelf. The primary color of the tabletop surfaces is a creamy light yellow or beige. The decoration consists of hand-painted floral motifs and symbols including yellow flowers, green foliage, and a prominent centered black heart on the drop-leaf panels. The top surface appears to have additional figurative painting, possibly of birds or small animals, near the finger-hole cutouts on the side flaps. The craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced item from the late 20th century, likely between 1980 and 2000, designed to emulate Country or Americana styles. Condition-wise, the wood shows minor surface abrasions and light wear along the edges of the hinge joints, but the painted elements remain largely intact. The joinery appears to be standard mechanical fasteners typical of functional accent furniture. Its compact size and integrated shelf make it suitable for use as a hallway console or a side table in a cottage-style interior.
