19th c. French Coffee Table
France, 19th Century
$1,195
The trestle table is about the oldest shape furniture comes in, two uprights and a beam, the same way a table was made in a monastery five hundred years ago. Found in Le Perche and dating to the 19th century, this one is a low version, a thick plank top on two carved trestle legs joined by a heavy central stretcher. Sylvie sets it in front of a sofa with a stack of art books and a small vase on top, low and solid enough to put your feet up beside.
Minor variations from the images may occur unless otherwise noted. All sales are final.

Notes from Sylvie:
Dear collector, as with many antiques, this piece may show signs of its age, including subtle repairs, a bit of movement, cracks, scratches, small holes, and surface variation from years of use. The wood has a richly textured surface from years of use and retains a gleaming finish.
