This item was lost in the fire in The Mackintosh Building at The Glasgow School of Art on 23rd May 2014. This item was assessed for conservation in 2010 as part of the Mackintosh Conservation and Access Project (2006-2010). Designed for the Billiards Room, Willow Tea Rooms, Glasgow. This table does not appear in contemporary photographs of the Tea Rooms. It is cruder in construction and more robust than the other round table, MC/F/46, and so has affinities with the heavier looking furniture designed for the Billiards Rooms. The square cut-outs on the legs echo the similar arrangements of squares on the panel dividing the fitted seating in the Billiards Room. (Roger Billcliffe).

This item was assessed for conservation in 2010 as part of the Mackintosh Conservation and Access Project (2006-2010). Designed for Library at Glasgow School of Art. 'This piece appears in the 1910 Bedford Lemere photographs without the upper rack but even in those photographs it served as a reading desk for the periodicals. The arrangement of stretchers, with a small lattice work area in the centre of each section, is typical of the period, each of the intermediate vertical stretchers, at both ends of the table, is pierced with a unique design similar to the carved pendants on the balcony. The upper rack is simply slotted over the desk. Each end has an exaggerated play on the wedges and toggle fasteners which hold the piece together.' (Roger Billcliffe).

Perhaps originally kept in the book store on the mezzanine floor above the Library. Nothing about their appearance could be said to date specifically from c1910, so it is possible that they were made at the time of the first phase of the School (c1899) to provide temporary storage (Roger Billcliffe).

This item was assessed for conservation in 2010 as part of the Mackintosh Conservation and Access Project (2006-2010). Square display unit for the Library at Glasgow School of Art. Probably designed to support large bound volumes such as newspapers or folio books which were too large for the readers' tables. The deep zinc lined well in the centre could have been used as a receptacle for pot plants. It has been suggested that it was used for plant drawing, with four students working at drawing boards on each side of the stand, but this seems unlikely, the students would have been too close to the plant to be able to see it. The construction allows this piece to be dismantled and folded.
