Description from the seller
Antique Walnut Gaming Table with Fold-Down Top and Green Felt – 19th Century
We offer at auction this fascinating antique walnut gaming table from the 19th century, a piece of great elegance and functionality that will add a touch of class to any setting.
Key Features:
Pedestal Design: The table features a single faceted pillar base resting on a cross-stretcher foundation with lion’s paw stylized feet, ensuring stability and a solid design. This structure allows excellent freedom of movement for players.
Fold-Down Top: The upper surface, originally a glossy walnut surface, can be easily folded down to reveal a second playing surface.
Green Felt Playing Surface: The gaming surface is covered with bright green felt, still vibrant, framed by a polished walnut edge with internal metal hinges (see collage image detail). This design makes it ideal for cards, chess, or other tabletop games.
Hidden Drawer/Compartment: Under the top surface there is an integrated sliding compartment/drawer (see detail), perfect for storing decks of cards, chips, or other gaming accessories.
Conditions: The table is in overall excellent condition for its age. The walnut wood displays a warm, rich patina, with normal and expected signs of use for an antique piece, which enhance its authenticity. The fold-down mechanism works. The green felt is well preserved.
Technical Details:
Material: Solid Walnut, Felt, Metal (hinges).
Period: 19th Century (Restoration / Louis-Philippe era).
This table is not just a functional piece of furniture, but also a historic artifact that tells stories of leisure from bygone times. It is perfect as both a gaming table and an accent table in a refined living room or study.
