This piece is distinguished by its "centerpiece" structure, meticulously finished on all four sides, allowing it to be freely positioned within a room.

Technical and Construction Details:

Materials: Made of walnut with rosewood and boxwood inlays.

Top: The inlaid top features a large central rosette with floral and geometric motifs.

The rosette is enclosed in a double border of concentric circles, all enclosed within a "ribbon" frame with corners decorated with scroll motifs.

Drawers: The under-top band houses four drawers (one on each side), fitted with contemporary bronze knobs.

Supports: Deeply fluted, inverted truncated pyramid legs (typical of the Louis XVI style), terminating in an elegant tapered joint and turned foot.

Condition: The piece is in excellent overall condition. The patina is warm and deep, a sign of proper preservation over time. There are slight, natural signs of use consistent with its age, ensuring its authenticity. The piece has been restored with shellac polish.

Dimensions: Width 70 x Height 75 cm. See less
