About the Item
Pair English Pietra Dura Brown Wood Marine Sea Shells Side Tables
English, 20th Century
Height 70cm, width 47.5cm, depth 47.5cm
This exceptional pair of occasional tables was crafted in England and showcases the highly skilled pietra dura technique. Originating in Renaissance Italy, pietra dura involves meticulously inlaying brightly coloured stones to form elaborate patterns, often floral or geometric. Celebrated for its precision and rich palette, the technique was traditionally used for tabletops, decorative panels, and architectural ornamentation, representing both luxury and masterful craftsmanship while highlighting the natural beauty of semi-precious stones.
The octagonal tabletops feature vibrant polychrome designs, incorporating swirling motifs, shells, and coral forms. The marine-inspired theme is accentuated by striking blue lapis lazuli framing the intricate inlay. The tops are supported by elegantly turned wooden bases, terminating in four cross-shaped lion paw feet - a distinctive combination of design elements.
Expertly crafted and visually captivating, this pair of tables offers a sophisticated addition to any interior, blending artistic flair with functional elegance.
