18th Century Tuscan Inlaid Game Table with Geometric Marquetry

Offered by: Jacqueline Adams Antiques

Description
A beautifully preserved Tuscan game table from the 18th century, showcasing the elegance of Italian neoclassical design with a distinctive regional flair. Crafted from warm walnut and adorned with intricate inlaid marquetry, the table’s surface features a stunning geometric motif at its center, diamond-shaped, with alternating light and dark veneers, framed by a delicate border of chevron inlay that draws the eye inward.

The top rests on four sharply tapered legs, each veneered to accentuate the clean, architectural lines typical of the period. A discreet single drawer sits just beneath the apron, originally intended to store game pieces or playing cards, today, a charming nod to its original function.

The proportions are modest and balanced, ideal for use as a game table, side table, or even a striking entry accent. What sets this piece apart is not only the exquisite symmetry of its design but also the patina that only time can bestow, glowing tones of honey, chestnut, and burnt umber blend across the surface, revealing centuries of quiet history.

Whether in a refined study, a minimalist interior, or a layered eclectic space, this piece offers a rare combination of functionality and timeless Italian craftsmanship.

This is an antique and having been around for a long time, it will show signs of wear. Antique pieces have very much sought-after character and associated flaws. Please review photos for condition & contact us with questions!
