    Found this today at thrift store. It did not look like this, I spent a lot of time polishing the brass and also did the bamboo. If there is a special function for this table, I do not know what. Nice engraving on the brass, I like it! thanks for looking! Don

      The wooden section is worth a better look too, Don!

      It's really well constructed.

      Is it solid wood or veneer?

      The legs are solid wood, under tray is solid wood, and wrap around is it looks like 3 layers veneer, I took apart to clean, tray is very thick and heavy.

      It may not be old but it was an expensive piece for sure. Quality!
