This is an attractive and very good quality antique French provincial table, circa 1880, in original condition. It would have been used in a country property in France as a side table / small refectory table. It features a beautiful rustic chestnut top with a lovely grain configuration. Geometric carved design adorns the frieze of the table. Below, four very pretty tapered legs support the table. The style of the frieze and leg are typical of the Basque region of Southern France. The table frame has been painted in antique cream colour paint. The table has been handmade using a pegged construction method. The table will seat up to four people and is sufficiently tall enough to fit your legs underneath and is sufficiently wide to accommodate serving dishes in the centre of the table.
This table top boasts a rich chestnut colour. As the top boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.
This item would look superb in a variety of rooms, specifically the kitchen to the hallway. This item would certainly grace any home and is a great investment, as it’s an extremely functional item. So don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.
