19th Century French Louis XVI Mahogany Marble-Top Side Table
$2,900
About
This elegant antique French side table was crafted circa 1870 and reflects the refined neoclassical vocabulary of the Louis XVI style. Constructed in richly patinated mahogany, the table features a rectangular white marble top framed by a pierced brass gallery, offering both decorative refinement and practical containment. The marble surface displays natural veining consistent with age and use, contributing to the table’s authentic antique character. The frieze houses a single drawer fitted with its original key and functioning lock, accented by finely cast brass rosettes and escutcheon. The drawer opens smoothly, revealing traditional dovetail construction. Gently curved side panels soften the otherwise linear form, adding subtle elegance without compromising the Louis XVI emphasis on symmetry and restraint. The table is raised on four slender, tapered legs terminating in original brass sabots, a hallmark detail of the period that protects the feet while enhancing the overall refinement. A shaped lower shelf connects the legs, providing additional surface space and visual balance. This antique table is in excellent condition commensurate with age and use, retaining a warm mahogany patina and crisp architectural lines. Versatile in scale, it is well suited as a hallway side table, an occasional table, or a refined accent for both traditional and transitional interiors. Dimensions: 29″W x 13″D x 35″H
