Of rosewood with brass inlay. The figured green marble top is edged with a reeded brass molding. The base consists of four shaped cross banded legs whose leading face is centered by brass line inlay. The four legs are united by a crossed stretcher, which is centered by a turned disc from which a threaded post of solid rosewood allows the top to be rotated to be raised or lowered. The whole is raised on original brass casters with brass socket cappings.
