Louis XV French Marquetry and Ormolu Side Table

Side table distinguished by the masterful craftsmanship of its marquetry, which combines the chromatic richness and natural contrasts of Kingwood and Tulipwood, arranged in a refined geometric pattern that highlights the grain of the pieces.

Its silhouette, of highly stylized elegance, rises on slender cabriole legs ornamented with exquisite Ormolu mounts (mercury-gilded chiseled bronze) that run along the edges and finish the base in delicate sabots. The top surface, with a sinuous and undulating profile, is framed by a bronze perimeter molding that underscores the fluidity of its lines.
