This sculptural piece features a raised backsplash crowned with a decorative brass bull’s head mount—a classic emblem of traditional French boucheries.

The thick, end-grain top displays decades of authentic wear, beautifully contoured from years of honest use. Two lower drawers provide storage, finished with original brass pulls, while the geometric diamond motif on the apron adds subtle decorative charm.

Supported by squared, fluted legs with darkened feet, this table embodies both functionality and sculptural presence—ideal as a kitchen island, console, or decorative focal point in a rustic, farmhouse, or French Provincial setting.
