8' Brunswick "Monroe"
The late 1920’s Brunswick “Monroe” was the last of the president tables (Madison, Jefferson, Monroe) that shared the common characteristics of square-legs, straight sided cabinets and pin-striping. These models were most often African Quartered (“ribbon”) Mahogany, as this table is, but sometimes Oak.
Stylistically these tables, like the earlier square-leg boat-frames, continue the departure from Victorian style and fit broadly in with Mission, Arts & Crafts, and Deco environments.
