France, 19th Century

$995

Antique Rare One-Of-A-Kind

She’s clever by design. Found in Avignon and dating to the 19th century, this French tilt-top table was built to solve a very practical problem: how to live well in rooms where space mattered. The circular top pivots upright when not in use, allowing tables like this to be tucked against a wall between meals or gatherings - a common solution in French homes where rooms needed to flex throughout the day. Sylvie loves it opened up beside a chair for morning coffee or folded back when the room needs breathing space.

Notes from Sylvie:

As with many antiques, this piece may show gentle repairs, cracks, scratches, holes, years worth of patina, and stains - just the way we like it. Because of its moving mechanism these tables tend to have a bit of a wiggle to them, they are still perfectly functional though.
