(Drum tables quite often find themselves referred to as
rent tables due to the belief that landlords would use
them as a desk for keeping accounts of, and collecting
rent monies that were due. They are extremely desirable
and sought after pieces of antique furniture due to their relative
uniqueness and their incredible versatility when it comes
to function which is evident by the fact they can be used in a
whole variety of different spaces around the home from entrance
halls to libraries, studies and living rooms. They generally add a
real touch of elegance to any position they are placed as well as
the aforementioned functionality. This one is good quality and
has real elegance to its clean, simple design. As is relatively
standard with this type of table it is easy to dismantle into
two parts, making it very easy to ship and then once in situ
to position into any room of your choosing)
