Description:
Directly from France, behold this exquisite antique carved table or "bureau plat" with remarkable Renaissance Gothic charm. Its unique extra-large size makes it perfect for use as a writing desk or sofa table, adding a touch of sophistication to any modern home or office.

Key Features:
- Incredible Detail: Marvel at the intricate carvings adorning this piece, including rare lion feet that set it apart from typical tables of its era. The lion feet, a departure from the more common "dolphin" feet, add a majestic flair rarely seen in furniture.

- Unlock the allure of history with this exquisite antique table, boasting a hidden secret drawer complete with a lock crafted by Hobbs & Co London. While the lock itself is non-functional, it adds to the table's authentic charm and character, showcasing its rich heritage.

- Secret Drawer: Discover the hidden compartment, perfect for storing treasures or valuables discreetly.

- Hobbs & Co London Lock: Admire the craftsmanship of the lock, a testament to the fine workmanship of the
renowned Hobbs & Co London, even though it no longer operates.

- Original Charm: Embrace the table's original allure, as we've opted to preserve its vintage appeal rather than replace the non-working lock.

- Captivating Design: Admire the ornate relief carvings of lion masks on the canted corners, accompanied by large Gothic drop finials and Black Forest carvings below. The wide frieze features fancy French gadrooning, while the dovetailed drawer front adds further elegance.

- Renaissance Flair: Notice the carved beveled edge of the octagon table top and the dual legs on each side, featuring hand-carved acanthus bulbous "cup and cover" shapes. The detailed lion head feet and large carved stretcher enhance the piece's Renaissance aesthetic.

- Versatile Placement: With its all-around carving, this table can be placed anywhere in a room, as there is no designated "back side." Crafted from solid oak with a rich finish, it stands as a testament to the skill of craftsmen from the late 19th century.

Additional Information:
- Alfred Charles Hobbs (1812 – 1891): Born in Boston, America, Hobbs became a salesman for Jones & Newell, one of America’s leading lock manufacturers, in 1840. During the 1851 Great Exhibition in London, he caused a sensation by successfully picking both a Bramah lock and the famous Chubb detector lock.
