American Drew Company Traditional End Table

This is a rectangular end table, likely constructed from a combination of solid wood and veneers, exhibiting a medium to dark reddish-brown finish. The top surface displays significant wear, including scratches, discoloration, and areas where the finish has lifted or dulled, suggesting extensive use and exposure over time. The table features a single, prominent drawer positioned centrally below the tabletop. This drawer is adorned with two ornate, brass-toned bail pull handles with backplates, characteristic of a traditional or colonial revival style. The face of the drawer itself appears to be a different, possibly lighter, wood or veneer than the surrounding frame, creating a subtle contrast. Below the drawer, there is an open storage shelf, matching the material and finish of the top and sides, which also shows signs of wear and minor scratching. The table is supported by four turned legs, exhibiting a spool or baluster turning style, which are common in furniture from the mid-20th century onwards, especially pieces mimicking earlier styles. The legs terminate in block-like feet. The overall construction appears solid, indicative of mass-produced, quality furniture from its era. The presence of 'American Drew Company' marked in the drawer provides a clear manufacturer identification, dating it to a period when this company was active in producing traditional-style furniture. The style suggests it could be from the mid to late 20th century. Visible condition issues include significant surface wear on the top and lower shelf, minor dings and scuffs on the legs, and a general loss of luster to the finish throughout. The brass hardware appears to have original patina, but no significant damage or repairs are visible on the structure.
