Made of rich mahogany with a parquetry inlaid floral medallion top, the surface is protected by its original inset glass, preserving both its artistry and practicality. The raised rim around the oval edge suggests its use as a tea or serving table, designed to prevent items from sliding, much like a traditional butler’s table.

The carved apron features flowing acanthus leaf details, while the graceful cabriole legs end in scroll feet, reflecting the Rococo and Louis XV influences that were popular in Italy during the late 19th and early 20th century. Italian artisans were renowned for their marquetry and parquetry work, and this piece highlights that heritage beautifully.

While it functions perfectly today as a side table, accent piece, or display table, its likely original role as a serving or tea table adds both charm and historical value. A versatile and decorative piece that brings warmth and sophistication to any interior. See less
