Tapestry Table

As rare as they come. A late 19th century tapestry table, found in Avignon, and the kind of piece Sylvie nearly fell over herself to bring home. These unusual tables were crafted with textile tops protected under glass, often using fragments of old woven tapestries or embroidery, which allowed households to display treasured textiles in a functional way. The glass is no longer present but the floral woven surface here still carries its age with grace, the wood frame showing gentle wear and cabriole legs joined by an elegant stretcher. Today it could hold a stack of art books or stand beside a sofa, sparking conversation as a true oddity with charm and history.
