Art Deco Maroon Bakelite Charles Hardy Table and Stand

Reference: 

MPD-000706
Description

A rare and exciting American art deco side table clad in maroon Bakelite. The table was designed by Charles Hardy for Belmet Products of New York. Hardy was awarded Design Patent # 101,037 in 1936. The 10 ½" x 8 ½" maroon Bakelite base supports two nickel steel tubes and a flat band of nickel steel that curves upward where it meets the base. The maroon Bakelite top is rounded at one end and is 20" x 10". An ingenious ash receiver is built in. A pull of the wooden knob and the ashes fall into the container (which is easily removed). A label on the base advises that: "This table top and base made of genuine BAKELITE veneered on 5-ply wood. Liquor Proof. Belmet Products, inc. in Brooklyn, New York". The table is 21" high.
