Elevate your interior with this exquisite British Victorian tilt-top table, a true marriage of artistry and craftsmanship. The round tabletop features a hand-painted pastoral scene—a stately building nestled among autumnal trees—framed by a richly detailed border of mother-of-pearl inlay set into a glossy black lacquered surface.
Mounted on a pedestal base, the table is designed to tilt vertically for display, making it as much a decorative panel as a functional surface. The sculpted faces and ornate embellishments suggest mid-to-late 19th century English origin, possibly crafted in the style of papier-mâché or japanned furniture popular during the Victorian era.
