19th Century Game Table with Marquetry

About the Item

This finely crafted game table, dating from the late 19th century, embodies the refined elegance of the Transition style. Designed with exceptional attention to detail, it features a unique flip-top mechanism in a “portfolio” style. The tabletop slides perpendicularly across the base, allowing it to unfold and double in size, revealing a green felt surface that provides a smooth and practical area for playing cards or other games. Constructed from wood and veneered with a rich combination of fine woods, the table showcases exquisite floral marquetry patterns that add an artistic touch to its surface. The decorative accents are further elevated by gilt bronze ornaments, adding a luxurious and timeless charm to the piece. These embellishments harmonize beautifully with the intricate marquetry, enhancing the overall sophistication of the design. When not in use for games, the table retains its compact form, making it a versatile and functional addition to any interior. Its elegant cabriole legs and ornate details reflect the transitional essence between the Louis XV and Louis XVI styles, making it a true collector’s item. Whether used for gaming or as a decorative accent, this late 19th-century game table exudes history and sophistication, bringing a piece of French artistry into your home.
