Description from the seller

This elegant mid-20th-century tall occasional table stands out for its strong Art Nouveau influence and the ornamental richness of its handcrafted details. Made of solid wood in a deep reddish tone, it has a light, slender structure that combines functionality with decorative refinement. Its polygonal top incorporates a circular marble inset, adding color contrast and a durable, distinguished surface that enhances the overall piece.

The body is richly adorned with pierced floral carvings, in which flowers and sinuous botanical motifs intertwine in the characteristic organic lines of the Art Nouveau style. These ornaments create plays of light and shadow that accentuate the depth of the carving and showcase the cabinetmaker’s skill. The slender, elegantly curved legs descend in a gently undulating line, ending in subtly arched feet and reinforcing the sense of movement so characteristic of this style.

A cruciform stretcher at the bottom provides structural stability without detracting from the design’s visual lightness. The combination of warm carved wood, delicate openwork, and a marble top makes this an attractive occasional table, ideal as a decorative pedestal, a lamp table, or a stand for plants and ornamental objects. Its refined, exotic aesthetic places it among the decorative works inspired by Orientalist and Art Nouveau tastes that continued to be produced during the first half of the 20th century.

Tracked shipping and careful packaging.
