About the Item
A masterful example of 19th-century Italian marquetry, this round Sorrento center table showcases the rich artisan traditions of southern Italy. The table features a dramatic veneered top inlaid with concentric decorative bands radiating from a central figural scene, meticulously rendered in contrasting woods. The vignette at the heart of the design depicts a classical moment—possibly a teacher and pupil—adding narrative charm to the table's visual rhythm.
Crafted in the Sorrento region during the 1800s, the piece rests on a robust turned pedestal with a stepped profile and deep ring carving, supported by three gracefully curved legs. The warm hues of the wood, likely a combination of walnut and fruitwood, highlight the natural grain while enhancing the marquetry’s intricate geometry.
Measuring nearly 60 inches in diameter and standing 30 inches tall, this table offers substantial presence without overwhelming a space. Whether placed in a grand entryway or dining room, it stands as both a functional surface and a decorative focal point—a testament to Italian craftsmanship and storytelling through wood.
