Vintage Duncan Phyfe Style Sewing Cabinet Side Table Mahogany Wood Spool Drawer

This is a charming mid-20th-century Duncan Phyfe style sewing cabinet, functioning perfectly as a classic side table or end table. It features the elegant tripod base and reeded pedestal typical of the 19th-century revival style. The most unique feature is the hidden swing-out spool tray on the top tier. By pressing the left side, a semi-circular wooden tray with pegs for thread spools swivels out—a clever and rare piece of furniture engineering. The bottom drawer provides ample storage for craft supplies or personal items.
