Mid-Century But Not Modern

So in my last post, I included a photo of a pair of end tables I purchased off Craigslist for a great price. Unfortunately, the purple paint just doesn't fit with its mid-century style. I just can't tell what the material the end tables are made of or what paint is covering them now.

The paint is peeling in strips and feels like rubber. I really don't think its good for the piece or my sanity to continue peeling inch by inch.

The wood, or whatever it is, still seems to have some primer or maybe the underlining of the paint left over.

There appears to be three parts to the end table: the main top, the bottom (this seems to be wood), and the top. The paint is also peeling here as well.

The pieces are both very heavy on their own. They have a manufacturer's emblem on the bottom and I'm still working on what it says. So, with more time because of Labor Day, and an email shoutout to my Dad, hopefully I will have these two down by next week!

After checking the bottom and using the old grave engraving method with a pencil and paper, it appears that they are Lane end tables. Not sure when they were made but I guess I'll put my history background to work with some research.
