Item Details

A highly decorative French Napoleon III tilt-top occasional table in ebonised wood.


Richly embellished with hand-painted floral bouquets, gilt scrolling ornament and inset mother-of-pearl decoration. The scalloped circular top is centred by a floral reserve and surrounded by further bouquets within shaped cartouches, all executed against a black ground. Raised on a turned pedestal and tripod base decorated with conforming gilt and floral motifs, the table retains its original tilt mechanism allowing the top to be displayed vertically when not in use.


The table displays an aged patina with visible historic restorations to the top, including old repairs to age-related splits and surface consolidation. The mother-of-pearl highlights add a subtle luminosity and refinement characteristic of high-quality decorative furnishings produced during the Napoleon III period. A striking decorative piece combining strong visual impact with practical scale. Height when folded 107cm.
