Biedermeir Pedestal Table, Circa 1840

About the Item

This 19th century round Biedermeir pedestal table features fantastic artistry and craftsmanship. The top is inlaid with exotic wood, the base is inlaid with vertical stripes, and the foot features a horizontal inlay of the same design as the top band. The table top is centered with a classic sunburst inlay of a lighter wood. The edge of the table top is reeded, and inlaid with fleurettes of lighter wood. Finally the piece rests on bun feet at the bottom. This piece is a collection of a fourth generation, family owned business in New Orleans called The French Antique Shop. The store was first opened by Marie and Marcel Granet in Paris when they married in 1927. A jewish family, they came to the United States before the outbreak of the Second World War, leaving on the last boat out of Paris' port, Le Havre. When they reached New Orleans, they fell in love with the Vieux Carre as it reminded them of home. Their first shop here in New Orleans was located on Chartres Street in the French Quarter and was stocked originally with pieces they had brought with them from Paris. They moved to Royal Street and settled in their present expanded location at 225 Royal Street in 1947. Today, the shop is run by the third and fourth generation, Marc, and his two sons Michael and Brian. By purchasing from our shop, you're supporting a family run business which focuses on artisan made, high quality craft with an emphasis on quality. Thank you for helping us continue a dream started four generations ago!
