French Empire Side Table in Carved Wood, circa 1850

Price: Price on request

An exquisite mid-19th-century French Empire side table, crafted circa 1850, showcasing the refined grandeur and sculptural elegance that define the Empire aesthetic.

This beautifully proportioned piece features a solid wooden top with a softly raised edge, resting on an exceptional base composed of finely carved and sculpted swans. The sweeping curves of the swans, symmetrical formed, and detailed ornamentation evoke the imperial style popular under Napoleon III, balancing strength with graceful artistry.

A lower circular shelf provides additional structure and visual harmony, while the table stands firmly on paw feet, a signature Empire detail inspired by classical antiquity.

Both functional and decorative, this side table brings a touch of 19th century French sophistication to any interior; equally striking as an accent table in a living room, hallway, or library.

A distinguished and authentic Empire antique in very good condition, rich in craftsmanship and presence.
