French, c.1720

The wonderfully executed carved giltwood surface of this Régence period table is decorated with symmetrical designs, in the form of acanthus leaves, shells and rinceau. It features a lockable, hinged top opening, revealing a green velvet-lined compartment, and a mirror. Symmetrical designs adorn the sides of the piece, mirroring the front of the table which includes a single drawer. Four cabriole legs support the body of the table.
The present piece is particularly rare and important as a period example of the French Régence of the early 18th century. A beautiful piece, and testament to the skill and artistry of French Rococo craftsmanship and design, it is an exceptional and highly desirable antique interior addition. -
