About the Item

French Louis XV-Style Walnut Side Table, Circa 1880 - Sculptural Floral Carving, 19th Century Decorative Furniture DESCRIPTION This refined French side table, dating to the circa 1880s, exemplifies the late 19th-century revival of Louis XV forms, interpreted through the lens of skilled artisanal cabinetmaking. Crafted in solid walnut, the table is distinguished by its softly contoured top and elegantly cabriole legs, each enriched with deeply carved floral and foliate motifs that reveal a confident hand and a mature decorative vocabulary. The sculptural carving, particularly evident in the vertical leg reserves, reflects the persistence of naturalistic ornamentation well into the Belle Époque, where historic styles were revisited with renewed technical precision. The warm patina of the wood, developed through time and use, enhances the tactile quality of the surface and underscores the object's authenticity. Preserved within the personal collection of architect Gianantonio Malacrida, this table resonates with his lifelong sensitivity to craftsmanship, proportion, and historical continuity. Objects such as this formed part of the aesthetic environment that informed his architectural imagination-an intimate dialogue between structure, ornament, and material memory. Both functional and sculptural, the table is suitable as a center table, side table, or accent piece, and integrates seamlessly into interiors ranging from classical to eclectic contemporary settings. Provenance: From the private collection of Gianantonio Malacrida. Not authored by him, but preserved in his home and studio as part of his documented aesthetic world. Carved solid walnut, hand-finished, traditional joinery
