Antique kidney shaped vanity

12 years ago

Hello, just picked up this little vanity dresser at a yard sale for $100. Does anyone know about how old this mahogany vanity is? Is there a more "proper" term for the this type of vanity? Any input would be much appreciated.

thanks,

1930s, moderately Art Deco. REALLY CUTE and it could easily be a vanity.
