19th c. Monastery Table
France, 19th Century
$4,495
A showstopper! This 19th-century monastery table, found in Avignon, features beautifully rounded ends and a two-tone surface made from contrasting strips of aged wood. Monastery tables were originally built for communal meals in religious institutions, designed with solid trestle bases to accommodate long benches and daily gatherings. This one carries that legacy of utility and presence, with turned legs and a wide stretcher base that speak to its ecclesiastical roots. Sylvie sees it as the centerpiece of a long Sunday lunch or a dramatic entryway installation layered with books, tarot cards, hand-made ceramics, and candlelight.
