18th Century, Two French Louis XVI Veneered Wood Center Tables or Night Stands

About the Item

Two Louis XVI center tables in veneered wood, marble top and gilded bronze finishes, France, second half of the 18th century Measurements: left side table: cm L 49 x P 35 x H 65; right side table: cm L 42 x P 34 x H 66 These two coffee tables or nightstands, were made in France in the Louis XVI era, in the second half of the eighteenth century. Their structure is paved with the use of precious woods. Although differing in some details, the two coffee tables have the same architecture, with rectangular marble top, under-top band with drawer and lock in chiselled and gilded bronze and a second lower floor. The four legs with square section have in the corners square articulation elements and end with truncated feet of inverted pyramid. The right side table is profiled by a railing in gilded bronze and the four feet are embellished with golden bronze tips. The wise use of different wood species with characteristic veins and shades creates accurate color games, reserves and frames, making these two cabinets very decorative and elegant. The two coffee tables are finished on all four sides allowing them possibly to be placed in the middle of a room. Difficult to find similar proportions and design, but pleasing in their small variations, are also suitable to be used as bedside tables giving the room a more modern furniture while retaining grace and refinement.

  • 18th Century, Italian Louis XV Wood Center Table
    Located in IT
    18th century, Italian Louis XV wood center table This elegant and refined center cabinet was made in Turin around the mid-18th century. Characteristic of the high Piedmontese cabinet making, for this piece of furniture, a veneer was chosen with the particular wood, applied on the piece of furniture with a sophisticated game of mirrors and patterns of the wood grain. The furniture has a shaped and wavy top, and the wooden essence creates a chromatic game called "a occhio di pernice" (partridge eye). On the front it consists of two drawers and a compartment protected by two doors. The opening system of the doors is sliding, very rare and difficult to achieve. The mouthpieces of the locks are in chiseled bronze and gold, as well as the tips of the four legs that are arched and graceful, typical of the Baroque. This cabinet is perfect for any room and can also be exposed in the center of a room thanks to its finish on all four sides. It is also suitable alongside modern and antique furniture.
