The three-tier form is especially graceful, with spindle dividers through the upper section, painted garlands along the rails, and small floral panels accenting the corners.

Designed for books, periodicals, or sheet music, it works equally well as a movable library stand or decorative side piece. The brass casters make it easy to position beside a reading chair, writing desk, or sofa, while the painted surface adds a lighter, more decorative note than a traditional dark mahogany Canterbury.
