Amazing Scenic Micro Mosaic Table with Hand Carved Figures circa 19th Century

About the Item

Amazing 19th century very high quality scenic micro mosaic table from Italy with hand carved figural legs. Large mosaic center medallion with 8 smaller medallions encircling the table. Notice the malachite border around the outside plus another full circle of malachite towards the middle. The dolphin legs are truly outstanding. This table will stand out within any interior and enhance all of the surrounding decor. Micro mosaic tables are getting increasingly harder to find and will continue to highlight the best interiors worldwide. The table is very sturdy and would support a large sculpture, although hiding the amazing detail of the mosaics might deter the thought of using it as a sculpture stand. Regardless of the placement the table will enhance the room it is placed in.

  • 19th Century Italian Micro-Mosaic Grand Tour Table Attributed to Roccheggiani
    By Cesare Roccheggiani
    Located in London, GB
    A rare grand tour table Possibly by Cesare Roccheggiani The circular platform of marmore nero, inset with fine micromosaic panels consisting of thousands of coloured glass tesserae; a central roundel depicting The Vatican from St Peter's Square within a malachite border, surrounded by a border including four cartouches in polychrome reserves of Roman views including the Coliseum, the Roman Forum, with the remnants of the Temple of Vespasian; the Temple of Vesta, and the Pantheon, all interspersed and linked by voluminous bouquets of fruit and flowers representing the 4 seasons; the outer stylised border inlaid with deep blue tesserae evocative of exotic Lapis Lazuli. Supported on a finely carved Italian giltwood base, its design incorporating baskets of fruit and floral garlands echoing the 4 seasons theme of the table. Italian, Circa 1875 Other table tops inspired by this design, although not as finely executed, can be found in several Russian collections (which house the greatest micromosaics) including Vorontsov Palace, Muranovo House, as well as the imperial State Hermitage Museum. A tabletop with profuse floral micromosaic work was commissioned by the Belgian Royal family (sold Sotheby's, 2003). The floral garlands, the magnificent quality of the inlay and the use of distinct curved tesserae support the present attribution to Cesare Roccheggiani. According to Jeanette Hanisee Gabriel, the world expert on micro mosaics, curved tesserae pieces were used in foliage, grass and animal fur by only the very best mosaicists such as Roccheggiani. Evidence of curved pieces, for instance, is observed in the foreground of the Temple of Vesta cartouche, to name but one observation of the master's hand. The scion of a dynasty of mosaicists, Roccheggiani was perhaps the most successful mosaicist in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. He is doubtless related to Lorenzo Roccheggiani, a late eighteenth-century master mosaicist at the Vatican, whose work included the altarpiece, Crucifixion of St. Peter after Guido Reni. Nicolo Roccheggiani, possibly Lorenzo's son, was also a principle artist at the Vatican, involved in executing the famous tabletop Achilles Shield...
