Notes
Essentially, this is a variation of another known inlaid table or desk–like the one at LACMA (acc. no. M.89.151.7)–with the addition of cabinet on top and a different drawer configuration. Although uncataloged, this form has appeared in private sales and auctions. See, for instance: Sotheby’s (New York), Important 20th Century Design, December 17, 2009, lot 231. The dimensions in the database are derived from the online catalog of the Minneapolis Institute of Art, acc. no. 2009.10, The Walter C. and Mary C. Briggs Endowment Fund and gift of the American Decorative Art 1900 Foundation. The image is provided through a Creative Commons PDM license.
