Object-holding table with basket compartment (Work Table) Turned wood - Unusual and practical central column side table, characterized by a multifunctional structure. The furniture develops on a finely turned central shaft that rests on a solid rounded circular base. The peculiarity of the piece lies in the presence of an intermediate basket compartment (or railing), delimited by small turned balusters, originally conceived as a work holder (for sewing) or as a magazine and tobacco holder. The upper surface is circular and has a slightly molded edge, offering an ideal resting surface for a lamp or for living room use. The design recalls the functional furnishings of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, where the elegance of turning combined with the need to optimize spaces in bourgeois homes. Material: Turned and polished wood Type: Work table / Magazine rack Condition: Good; it presents the original patina with slight and physiological signs of aging on the surface of the top and base. Dimensions: [Insert height x top diameter] cm
