Circa 1890 Bleached French Carpenters Work Bench Table with Lower Storage

About the Item

Originally the work bench for a French carpenter, this fantastic antique industrial table offers a storage shelf beneath, as well as a small drawer under the four-inch thick top. Hand-carved circa 1890, the wood has been bleached more recently (likely Elm wood), allowing the bench to be used as a rustic table and paired with a variety of color schemes. The nearly eight-foot-long top has a bench dog clamp on the left side, that is paired with the original vise on the front left leg. In between the four robust legs is an open shelf that affords ample storage. A small drawer affixed near the front right leg also offers additional storage. Our carpenter’s work bench table would make a unique console table or sofa table.

  • Antique Bleached Oak Louis XVI Style Demoiselle Clock Case, circa 1890
    Located in Dallas, TX
    After the rediscovery of the ancient Roman cities, Herculaneum and Pompeii (1709 and 1738, respectively), Neoclassical themes became popular. During the reign of Louis XVI, these elements were often paired with themes from nature to form highly carved pieces of furniture, such as this antique clock case. hand carved circa 1890 from oak, the shapely clock is referred to as a demoiselle. The original finish has been bleached, allowing the supple curves and intricate carvings to gain prominence. A large white clock face with blue numerals can be seen behind a circular pane of glass surrounded by raised molding adorned with cordate leaf tips. Two carvings (one with a pair of flowers and the other with a fringed linenfold swag) embellish the bonnet, between a molded crown with a subtle arch and recessed galbee sides. The bonnet rests on top of an hourglass shaped trunk that is festooned with two shaped panels with floral décor. A large roundel...
