Description from the seller


Octagonal game table with inlaid top – 20th century

Elegant solid wood gaming table, crafted with an octagonal top finely inlaid with a chessboard pattern. The surface features a rich work of marquetry with floral and geometric motifs, executed with different wood essences that give depth, contrast, and a high-quality artisanal character.

The lateral band of the panel features a raised, 'cannellato' inlay work that adds sophistication and a three-dimensional effect. The table rests on three turned legs connected by a curved wooden triangular base, which ensures stability and imparts a classic and decorative touch to the style.

It is an ideal object both as a gaming table (chess, checkers, small board games) and as a refined decorative element for lounges, entrances, or studies.
