General Notes

Note

This Regency-style side table with drop leaves is an ideal piece for Club use. Traditionally set alongside a sofa or armchair with a handy drawer for storage, the table can also be set, as shown, lengthwise to fill a larger space when entertaining. Raising one leaf turns the table into a writing desk, raising both provides a small dining or game table.
