Description from the seller
Elegant gilt metal side table – Louis XVI / neoclassical style
Elegant side or occasional table made of worked metal with gilt finish, inspired by the refined Louis XVI neoclassical style.
The octagonal top shows a beautiful aged patina, with visible signs of use that enhance its authentic character. The rim is finely decorated with embossed floral motifs, while below the top runs a decorative frieze composed of garlands and hanging festoons, adding depth and sophistication.
The table stands on four slender twisted legs, connected by a lower cross stretcher with a central decorative element. The overall structure is both light and elegant, yet stable and well-balanced.
This piece fits perfectly in both classic interiors and more eclectic or contemporary settings as a decorative accent table.
Period: likely mid-20th century, in neoclassical style (18th century inspiration)
Material: metal (likely iron/brass) with gilt finish
Dimensions:
• Height: 66 cm
• Diameter: 33 cm
Condition:
In good overall condition. Shows age-related wear, oxidation, partial loss of gilding and stains on the top surface, consistent with age and use. Structurally sound
