The rectangular top is framed on three sides by a raised wooden gallery, with an elegant shaped cutout at the front that lightens the silhouette and adds subtle decorative interest. The surface shows visible marks and wear consistent with age, clearly visible in the photographs, contributing to the table’s authenticity and charm.

The table opens on the side with a single drawer fitted with a simple knob, offering discreet storage while preserving the restrained design. It stands on four straight, square-section, sheathed legs that emphasize verticality and balance, hallmarks of the Louis XVI style. The walnut retains a warm, aged patina that highlights the natural grain and understated craftsmanship.

Compact and versatile, this side table works well as a lamp table, occasional table, or bedside piece. A sober and elegant example of Louis XVI–inspired furniture, valued for its proportions, utility, and original character.
