This monumental Hollywood Regency sculptural dining table perfectly captures the crisp, tropical glamour of Celerie Kemble and the unapologetic maximalism of a Kips Bay Decorator Show House vignette.
Featuring a stark white palm tree trunk rising from a heavily textured botanical base, the table is accented by a charming perched monkey and a suspended bunch of bananas—a nod to the iconic, whimsical style found at The Colony Hotel in Palm Beach.Meticulously finished in our studio, the sweeping fronds have been highlighted with a custom feathered gold leaf technique.
The parcel gilt detailing mirrors the high-design theatricality of a Tony Duquette estate, the structural elegance of Maitland-Smith, and the dramatic Italian scale of Tommaso Barbi. With its stylized silhouette and playful animal motif, this piece seamlessly bridges Postmodern Tropical flair with classic James Mont Chinoiserie and Dorothy Draper scale.
Ideal as an intimate breakfast table, sunroom center piece, or entry gallery accent, the newly painted pedestal is paired with a heavy 36-inch round glass top. The clear insert allows an unobstructed view of the intricate gilding and artisanal craftsmanship below. Excellent restored vintage condition, catching the light beautifully from every angle.
