French 19th Century Walnut Wine Taster’s Table

Offered by: Fireside Antiques

Description
Dimensions: 29 ⅝” H x 49 ⅝” W x 38 ½” D

This solid walnut wine tasting table, properly known as a vendange, was made in the late 19th century in France. Used by wine-makers throughout France and Europe, these specialized tables have a tilting mechanism that allows its top to be positioned in upright orientation–taking up less space in tightly-quartered cellars. A quick twist of the V-shaped support leg locks the oval top in place when flat. This unique table would be delightful as a center table to greet your guests, as well as in an informal dining space like a breakfast nook. Please view the detailed images to see the current condition. Note that at some point in time, one pair of legs has been reinforced with iron brackets at the feet–adding to the historic charm of this occasional table.

Upright dimensions: 47 ¼” H x 49 ⅝” W x 19” D
