AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rest / Small Jacobean-style end table, late 19th century or early 20th century (Victorian / Revivalist period).
Magnificent low rectangular bench (footstool-like or teapot table) in solid oak, entirely hand-carved. The top features a rich central ornamental rosette with a geometric surround carved in deep relief. The frame rests on four short turned legs with barley twist, joined by H-shaped stretchers, also turned, giving great stability and sturdiness to the piece. Jacobean / Louis XIII-inspired style.
Overall good condition, presenting a natural, even dark patina. Wear commensurate with age and use is visible on the edges and feet, attesting to its antiquity. Solid construction.
Seller's Story
Antiques are my great passion; all the items I have on auction were found at antique fairs and antique shops mainly from the Lisbon area, but also from the rest of Portugal, a country with a centuries-old history and many fabulous pieces and objects from this long journey, which I present here for auction. Only pieces of good quality, distinctly original, and obviously beautiful. Guarantee of quality and great care in the shipping of the items. Thank you.
