The rectangular top consists of a woven cane panel inset beneath a protective glass sheet. The desk is configured with four drawers, two to each pedestal, featuring white spherical knobs. The second piece is a 20th-century decorative occasional table or writing desk, featuring a cream-coloured painted finish with a serpentine-fronted top decorated with a hand-painted border of pink blossoms and green leaves. The piece includes a single central drawer fitted with a floral ceramic knob and stands on four ring-turned legs. No maker's marks, stamps, or labels are visible on either piece.
