French Provincial Tables
FRENCH PROVINCIAL STYLE
Removed from the fashions of the court, French Provincial style developed in the provinces of the country, such as Provence, Normandy, the Loire Valley and Bordeaux. Dating to the 17th and 18th centuries, French Provincial furniture was not as ostentatious as the designs being produced for the royal palaces, but elegant S-shape cabriole legs and ornate carvings elevated the sturdy chairs, sofas, tables and bedroom furniture intended for everyday use.
Although it varies by region, antique French Provincial furniture is unified by solid construction and an artisanal attention to design. While this furniture often followed the metropolitan trends — including the Rococo or neoclassical aesthetics of Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI — since it was produced in the French countryside it was more subdued with nods to its rustic settings.
Local materials like fruitwoods, oak, beech and walnut were used to construct large French Provincial armoires for storage and comfortable armchairs with rush-woven seats. Wrought-iron elements and carvings like floral details and scallop patterns were common as ornamentation. Furniture was frequently painted white or other muted colors that coordinated with gilt and would acquire a patina of age over time. Other wood was just stained with vibrant fabric such as toile de Jouy, which sometimes depicted pastoral scenes, adding color as upholstery.
The style arrived in the United States after World War I, with soldiers returning home wanting furniture like what they had seen in the rural homes and castles of France. In Grand Rapids, Michigan, designer John Widdicomb split from his family business, the Widdicomb Furniture Company, and had been focusing on Louis XV– and French Provincial–style furnishings since the early 1900s. Other American manufacturers such as Baker, Drexel, Henredon and Thomasville also responded to demand. Today antique French Provincial pieces and reproductions continue to be popular.

Provencal Style French Extending Table
Located in Prato, Tuscany
We kindly suggest that you read the whole description, as with it we try to give you detailed technical and historical information to ensure the authenticity of our items. French extending table in Provencal style made of oak wood; the top has a precious "parqueterie Versailles" workmanship, this name because the design of the decoration was made on the model of a floor of the Palace of Versailles; the underneath and the legs are ebonized wood with some light carving; the legs are "cabriole "that is, a design shaped in two curves, the upper one convex and the lower one concave; a shape known to the ancient Chinese and Greeks, which came back into fashion in Europe at the end of the 17th century, when it was incorporated into the more curvilinear styles introduced in England, France and Holland; with this type of leg, the design becomes very pleasing, well-proportioned and elegant. The term parquet is of French origin and seems to have originated in the 1600s, a time when wooden floors were at their most popular. The word parquet comes from the technique of marqueterie or parqueterie i.e., inlay applied to fine furniture. The table extends easily, the two extensions, originally, slide out from under the top and fit with the top itself in a perfect and aesthetically pleasing manner. This work of art was created by a true master cabinetmaker in a perfect and meticulous manner in France between 1910 and 1915 in an artisan workshop in the artisan area of Bru, in the department of Vosges in the Grand Est Region. The style is typically Provençal, but the finishing of the top and the choice to create a pleasant contrast, using black for the part underneath, give it a strong aesthetic and make it much more elegant and refined than Provençal furniture...
