Deep ebonized color & matte texture of the wood contrasts beautifully with the kaleidoscopic inlay of mother-of-pearl shell fragments arranged in cresting waves around the circumference. Larger pieces of shell accent the hand-painted floral decoration in the center, standing in for the blossoms, cut to gently scalloped edges like petals. A turned wood support column is given definition by little rings of gold as it widens to a tripod base decorated with scrolling motifs. Note that the tilting mechanism has been stabilized at some point in history, meaning the table is fixed flat and no longer pivots. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition of this extraordinary occasional table. See less
