It was a fantastic gift ! It doubles as a desk , artist table and a small dinner table . This will be placed in a small artists office that has a marketing job as well . It is also ready to be used as an extra place to serve dinner . I bought the bookshelf that was made of the same kind of wood and has an iron bar below it . This small space is also where her laundry room is so her hang up dry clothes space doubles as a book shelf cleared of clothes .
