Large octagonal side table in carved solid oak, s

Magnificent octagonal side table or salon table in Neo-Renaissance / Louis XIII style. Material: Made entirely of solid oak, with a beautiful warm patina that highlights the natural grain of the wood. Details and finishes: The octagonal top is bordered by a carved frieze of scrolls and foliage. The apron is adorned with superbly hand-carved winged angel heads (putti). It rests on four spiral-turned legs, connected by a cross stretcher centred with a ball. Period: 19th-century style work (historicist). Condition: Generally good condition, with the charm of age and beautiful finishes. (To be nuanced if the table has specific small defects). This character piece will bring a touch of authenticity, history, and elegance to an eclectic interior, a cabinet of curiosities, or to contrast beautifully with a contemporary living room.
