    This piece is as useful as it can be, but I don't know anything about it. It carries a few scars, and a "Craftsman/Gustav Stickley" label. I'm also not sure that the finish is original.

    It has a drop leaf on the front, and I've included a photo of the locking brace that supports it.

    It measures 38" x 29" x 13.5"

    What is it? I don't know if it's a bookshelf, an endtable, or what. Also, does anyone have any idea of an approximate age?

    Stickley is still in business & making furniture, they also still have a Mission style line. I don't think OP piece is period because it is not quarter sawn but wait for Brad, he collects this era.

    If I recall, not all of their products were quarter-sawn, and that label is older than dirt.
