Found it on the curb, and I liked the design. Looks like solid wood, but the joints are all coming apart and look tricky to reinforce. Would you bother?

I'd do it, though I might cut new side stretchers and do a full mortise and tenon through the legs; maybe also add a cross stretcher between.

But I agree, looks pretty neat

*furiously scribbling notes* side scratchers, mortar and tenderloin, cross dresser.....

Ok, I think I've got it.
