About the Item
Dining Table with “Presse à Vin” Legs, Bleached Oak, France, 1940s
French Provincial Style
With its monumental spiraled legs and deeply carved stretcher, this French oak table pays homage to the agricultural architecture of 19th-century wine presses (presse à vin), reimagined through a modern provincial lens. The form is both symbolic and structural—bold, rhythmic, and quietly expressive.
Crafted in the 1940s, the table reflects the evolving visual language of French Provincial furniture, where ornamental vernaculars gave way to sculptural utility. The table’s mass is balanced by subtle movement: notched edges, chamfered stretchers, and hand-carved feet that soften its architectural presence.
The oak has been treated with Jada Galerie’s signature bleaching technique, revealing a mineral tone and dry grain that speak to the raw elegance of material truth. The surface is smooth yet unsealed, inviting a tactile, lived-in relationship with time and use.
Signs of authentic age—light abrasions, softened carvings, and the gentle movement of hand-cut joints—speak to its provenance without diminishing its structural integrity.
This piece evokes the spirit of Charles Dudouyt and the vernacular modernism later explored by Guillerme et Chambron, where rural forms became sculptural statements. Ideal as a dining table, studio anchor, or library desk within interiors that prize craft, clarity, and historical resonance.
Available for private acquisition. Collector and design trade inquiries are welcome.
