A delightful Tuscan painted drop-leaf table, dating from the early 20th century and retaining its original decorative finish. The hand painted top is adorned with scrolling foliate and floral motifs in warm green, pink and yellow tones, creating a soft, romantic palette with wonderful character.
The shaped end leaves fold down to form a neat, compact console, and open to provide a generous oval surface ideal for dining or display. The paint surface shows attractive craquelure and an honest age patina throughout.
A single frieze drawer to each side, each with a simple wooden knob, offers useful storage, while the understated trestle-style base ensures sturdy support without detracting from the decorative top.
Originating from Tuscany, Italy, this versatile piece works beautifully as a small dining table, centre table, or as a charming accent in a kitchen or breakfast room. Dimensions: 78.5cm H x 160cm W x 101cm D, 54cm D with leaves dropped.
