About the Item

This elegant French Louis XVI–style mahogany games or napkin table exemplifies the refined neoclassical aesthetic that defined late 18th-century French furniture design and continues to influence sophisticated interiors today. Graceful in proportion and rich in detail, this versatile table functions beautifully as a games table, occasional table, or refined side table in both traditional and transitional settings. Crafted from warmly patinated mahogany, the table features a square flip-open top upholstered in green felt, traditionally used for card games, backgammon, or serving linens. The hinged top opens smoothly to reveal a recessed interior surface, making it ideal for entertaining, gaming, or discreet storage. The top is framed by subtle brass edging, adding a refined metallic contrast that highlights the table’s crisp geometry. The apron houses a single central drawer, fitted with an ornate brass pull, offering convenient storage for playing cards, napkins, or small accessories. Classic Louis XVI–style tapered legs descend gracefully to brass-capped feet, while delicate brass mounts accent the corners and transitions, reinforcing the table’s neoclassical character. Clean lines, restrained ornamentation, and balanced proportions are hallmarks of the Louis XVI style, inspired by ancient Greek and Roman architecture. This table’s compact scale makes it exceptionally versatile, ideal for apartments, salons, libraries, or beside seating arrangements where both function and elegance are desired. Dimensions: 29 3/4" H × 23" W × 23" D (square) Condition: Consistent with age and use. Surface scratches present. Loose trim in areas. Felt top shows stains, wear, and discoloration. These imperfections are commensurate with age and contribute to the authentic antique character of the piece. A refined and functional example of French Louis XVI–style furniture, this mahogany games table offers timeless appeal, classical proportions, and decorative versatility—perfect for collectors, designers, and interiors seeking understated European elegance.
