Early 19th Century French Empire Period Mahogany Centre Table

This fine centre table is constructed in rich coloured mahogany with good surface and patination. The top of the table is a grey and white veined piece of marble with a deep moulded edge. The tripartite platform base has incurved triangular sides with flattened bun feet and castors. Above the base moulding is a tapering pedestal with fine quality ormolu mounts with original gilding attached to the centre of each side, illustrating flaming classical torches. Each corner of the base has a carved ram’s head and carved foliate detailing.

A nice piece of Empire period furniture.
