AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Italian carved and gilded wood coffee table with fossiliferous marble - circa 1930.
Elegant rectangular coffee table inspired by Louis XVI, crafted in carved, pierced and gilded wood, featuring an elaborately decorated waist with symmetrical volutes, vegetal scrolls, acanthus leaves and a lower frieze of stylized leaves.
The corners are marked by square insets with carved floral motifs. It rests on four straight, turned and fluted legs, with acanthus leaf capitals and lower ends in the shape of a button or stylized pinecone.
Thick and removable top in fossiliferous pink limestone marble, possibly Rosso Verona or Ammonitico Rosso, with numerous circular fossil traces in cream and beige tones. It presents a projecting, molded and polished edge.
The interior construction, with the top removed, reveals a solid rectangular framework prepared to support the heavy stone slab.
