I wanted a petite table with drawers to hold my crochet supplies in my needle art nook.  This is one of the cutest tables Ive ever owned.  The drawers slide in and out easily, it is a sturdy hardwood, and it looks very artsy (like a lot of hand craftsmanship went into it).  The flawless finish is dark and rich looking.  It had a strong lacquer odor when I first received delivery, but the smell disappeared after a day.  My daughter considers it on the heirloom list, AND it looks great next to my small Wayfair recliner!
