French 19th Century Louis XVI Style Oval Coffee Table

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Dimensions: 19 ⅞” H x 43 ½” W x 27 ¾” D

A French, 19th century Louis XVI-style oval form coffee table with the design features of bouillotte tables–the type made for playing the popular card game–given a very chic update in an ebonized finish that makes the brass accents pop. This example uses a white marble surface, inset and surrounded by a pierced brass gallery. The clean, oval shape is interrupted by slightly lobed protrusions where the four legs are joined to the apron, armored with reeded brass panels. Like the card table, this example features two storage drawers in the long sides of the apron and a hidden leaf in each end that slides out to offer a small, leather-top panel to set a drink or hand of cards. Slender, tapering legs end in brass sabot feet at the floor. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition as the marble shows etched areas of wear and scratches in the surface.
