Vintage Mission Style Oak End Table with Black Tile Inset
Unbranded (Possibly Lane, Riverside, or Hammary) · Furniture > Accent Tables
Era / Decade
Late 1970s to Early 1980s based on the turned legs and tile-top style popular during the Mediterranean/Early American revival period.
Material
Solid Oak and Veneer; Ceramic tiled top; Antique brass-finished drop-pull hardware.
Condition
Good. Shows visible wear on the lower stretcher and feet. The finish appears slightly dulled. Tiles seem intact with no visible cracks in the image, though grout may need cleaning.
Demand Level
Moderate. Tiled furniture is currently trending in 'Boho' and 'Eclectic' home decor circles, but local furniture pick-up is slower than shipping small goods.

Description
Sturdy vintage end table featuring a rustic oak finish and a functional black ceramic tile-inlay top. Design includes two faux-front or single drawer (needs verification) with traditional brass hardware, chunky turned legs, and a bottom H-stretcher for added stability. Perfect for plants or beverages due to the heat and water-resistant tiled surface.
Key Features
Water-resistant tiled top surface; solid wood construction (higher quality than modern MDF); popular 'Mission' or 'Rustic' aesthetic; heavy and durable build.
Authenticity Indicators
Mass-produced stamp marks are likely on the underside or inside the drawer. High confidence it is a vintage 70s/80s piece rather than a modern reproduction due to hardware style and wood grain character.
Flaws to Note
Scuffing on the bottom crossbar; possible scratches on the wood surface near the tiles; potential age-related wear to the drawer glides; grout may be discolored.
