GUSTAV STICKLEY | Library Table, Model No. 420

Overall very good condition. The oak surfaces throughout appear to retain their original rich dark finish, which present with scattered, very minor surface scratches, abrasions, and edge wear consistent with age and gentle use. The edges of the legs and feet with more concentrated wear and some associated edge losses. The table retains its original leather top which displays a rich aged patina with scattered surface scratches, abrasions, wear, and discolorations consistent with age and use. The leather belt around the bottom of the outer perimeter of the table with craquelure and minor flaking. The tacks with expected wear to the patina. A rare and quintessential form by Gustav Stickley that shows the superb design quality and boldness of their reverse-tapered designs.
