A charming late‑19th‑century French side table in the Louis XV style, crafted in richly toned walnut and professionally refinished to reveal its warm, refined character. Compact yet full of decorative presence, the table embodies the elegance and fluidity associated with the Rococo revival of the period.
The shaped top, with its softly rounded ends, rests above a façade featuring both a functional drawer and a false drawer front, an aesthetic choice typical of the era, balancing symmetry with practicality. Two hinged side leaves extend the surface when needed, transforming the piece from a petite accent table into a more generous serving or writing surface. When folded, the table measures a modest 47.5 cm in width, making it ideal for intimate spaces or layered interiors.
Gracefully curved cabriole legs support the structure, each adorned with subtle carved detailing that echoes 18th‑century French craftsmanship. The walnut displays a deep, even glow, enhanced by the recent refinishing while still preserving the table’s antique soul. The original key remains present, though the lock is no longer functional, an authentic detail that adds to the table’s historical charm. Small, old restorations blend discreetly into the piece, reflecting its long life and careful stewardship.
This is a versatile and atmospheric table; perfect as a bedside piece, a salon accent, or a refined companion in a reading corner, bringing with it the poetic grace of French decorative arts.
