Small Rattan Patio Table
This lot is a small round rattan patio table with a woven top and a lower undertier. It is offered as a single piece of occasional furniture suitable for use beside seating in a garden, conservatory or patio setting.
The table has a curved rattan frame that encircles a round woven panel, with the top edge bound in places. Its base is formed from a set of splayed legs joined by a circular stretcher, which is decorated with a series of curved rattan elements beneath the top. The piece is of a simple, classic rattan design, and the natural cane tone and sculpted frame give it a light, informal character. No maker or manufacturer’s marks are evident.
Condition and Collectability
The table shows general signs of age and use, including visible staining and discolouration to the woven top, and some wear to the rattan frame and legs. The bindings and joints appear to be in their original state, with no obvious replacement elements visible. Surface marks and tonal variation are consistent with a piece that has been used outdoors or kept in a domestic setting over time.
Buyers interested in vintage rattan furniture may appreciate this piece as a period example of mid to late twentieth century garden furniture. Its original woven top and frame make it a candidate for careful restoration or for use as a characterful, rustic occasional table. Prospective purchasers are encouraged to inspect the lot in person before bidding.
