A Mid-20th Century Painted Iron Table with Onyx Top
£3,900
SOLD
An extraordinary painted iron table of serpentine form, the scrolling frame with stylised foliate ornament and set with a richly veined onyx top.
This table relates to other known examples of French wrought iron furniture from the 1930s. Its stylistic source is the rocaille or rococo movement and specifically, carved giltwood console tables of the Louis XV Period in French furniture design.
Such a table would have been made as a statement piece and would most probably have been positioned in the hallway of a grand residence.
