About the Item
French Cabinetmaker’s Showroom Round Table
Second Half of the 19th Century
An exceptionally fine French round side table of cabinetmaker’s showroom quality, dating from the second half of the 19th century. The circular top is exquisitely veneered with approximately thirty-five different species of wood, arranged in a radiating and geometrically patterned design that demonstrates the craftsman’s virtuosity in marquetry and veneering.
The top rests on a turned central pedestal, ebonized and veneered in burl walnut, supported by an elegant tripod base. The table’s refined composition and masterful use of contrasting woods indicate that it was likely produced as a showpiece or exhibition example of a master ébéniste’s skill — a common practice among leading French cabinetmakers of the period to display the range of veneers and technical possibilities available in their workshops.
Ingeniously constructed, the table can be completely dismantled for ease of packing and transport, with the tabletop forming the largest single component.
