Antique Italian Renaissance Library Table in Carved Walnut, 17th C. and Later

About the Item

Measuring over 7.5 feet long, this handsome Italian library table could function as a console or large desk. Originally hand-carved from walnut, the table has some elements that are more recent, yet still antique. The beautifully carved closed lyre legs, which are comprised of banded dolphins with volute tails, date to the 17th century. An ornately shaped stretcher slots into the lyre legs, offering additional support for the one-and-a-quarter-inch thick top that was added in the 19th century. Beneath the top is a single drawer with a small iron pull and rosette backplate. The drawer fits seamlessly into the three-paneled frieze, with each of the rectangular sections surrounded by thick molding, which is mirrored by the backside. Our Renaissance-style Italian table would make a wonderful addition to a library or study, but could also be placed on a landing or in a foyer.

17th Century Spanish Walnut Wood Table with Single Plank Top

Located in Dallas, TX

A beautifully crafted wooden table from Spain, the walnut was hand-carved at the end of the Renaissance (in the 1600’s). As is the case with most Spanish Renaissance tables, the 1 ½” thick single plank top rests upon tightly turned legs. The edges of the top do not have molding or carvings but receive added character from the large dovetail grooves that were used to construct the table. This table has framing beneath the top plank which houses three horizontally aligned drawers. Each drawer façade has an iron escutcheon in the shape of shield with two engrailed top edges. The keyplate is set within a foliate margent that is surrounded by several layers of molding. Identical carvings and iron plates can be seen on the opposite side of the table, which has faux drawer fronts. Beneath the belt are four turned legs connected by an H-stretcher. Our 17th century Spanish walnut table...
