      <h1>Victorian Bamboo &amp; Rattan Side Table</h1>
      <img class="lot-detail__img" src="/images/bamboo-rattan-side-table.jpg" alt="Victorian Bamboo &amp; Rattan Side Table">
      <p>A round wood-top side table from J.B. Van Sciver, the Camden, NJ furniture
institution, dating to the earliest years of their 1881 opening. Pure
Victorian Aesthetic Movement — the bamboo-and-rattan craze that swept
American homes in the 1880s and '90s — with a lattice apron, X-stretcher
base, and green rattan-wrapped joints. Sturdy, characterful, and ready for
another century.</p>
