C-21656 <br> <br> Single-drawer wooden tabletop document cabinet. The shallow drawer is fitted with two white porcelain mushroom-form pull knobs and slides within a low-profile molded case intended for storing papers, correspondence, or writing implements on a desk or library table. The drawer front is constructed from a different wood species than the drawer sides and secondary woods, a common practice in quality late-19th-century cabinetmaking. Produced circa 1880–1900. <br> <br> Surface scratches, finish wear, and scattered scuffs throughout consistent with age and use. The birdseye maple drawer front has a split and loss along the lower edge as shown. Minor wear and small finish losses are present along edges and corners. Drawer operates smoothly and retains its original porcelain knobs. <br> <br> 22.75" L x 10.75" W x 3.25" H
