Napoleon III table or desk

Superb middle table in blackened pear tree, rectangular in shape with rounded sides, protected by a glass top. Its top, bordered by a frieze on bronze rod, sports in its center a marquetry with multiple decorations, such as cups, birds, flowers and rinsels. This top also offers nets forming double frames, all made of brass and ivory inlays. We find these same patterns of edging bordering the belt of this table, which opens by a drawer 8 cm deep. It has its original key and lock in working order. The whole rests on four turned, tapered and fluted legs. They are embellished with rudentures and collerettes – high and low – carved and in bronze. These four uprights end in tops and they are connected by a spacer on which are recalled the same inlay nets as those described above. At the junction of the half-moons that make up this lower part is placed a bronze vase with chiseled lid and elaborate handles. This decorative table designed during the reign of napoleon III will bring a lot of character to your interior. Size: Length: 131 cm. Width: 74.5 cm. Height: 75 cm.
