This rectangular two -plated table table has a rich decor marked by Lorraine thistles and a Lorraine cross on a light oak bottom. The mixture of light and colorful wood fuel tackles forms both realistic and poetic marquetry. The trays benefit from an overflowing entourage with tab cutting molds made up of chopsticks.
This service has four feet sculpted in bent beech. They are sculpted and made up of dugs dug on the front. They bring lightness to the whole.
On the upper plate at the bottom right we find the engraved signature of the artist "Emile Gallé Nancy" and the "EG" monogram accompanied by a small cross.
This patriotic table, dear to the artist, highlights his love for Lorraine by illustrating his emblems.
