About the Item

This antique oval tilt-top wine tasting table was crafted in France circa 1870 from solid walnut, representing both practicality and elegance in provincial furniture design. The oval plank top, measuring 51.5 inches wide by 42 inches deep, displays a warm and rich walnut patina developed over more than a century of use. It rests on a trestle base with graceful lyre-form support, turned columns, and broad scrolled feet. The tilt mechanism allows the top to fold vertically for convenient storage, a traditional hallmark of French wine tasting tables. Popular in the wine-growing regions of France, these antique tables were brought out annually for the unveiling of new vintages, often draped in simple cloths and surrounded by cheese, glasses, and spirited conversation. This example remains sturdy and functional, in excellent condition commensurate with age and use. With its glowing walnut finish and timeless silhouette, it is versatile as a breakfast nook table, center table, or decorative statement in a wine cellar, kitchen, or library.
