Sylvie Favorite

In a Dutch cellar, a table like this held the glasses and bottles while the wine was tasted. It dates to the 19th century, a Dutch piece that turned up in Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, a round plank top that lifts clean off a trestle base and locks back on with a metal latch. It was made to come apart, the top lifting free of the base so the whole thing could be carried in two pieces and set up again wherever the next barrel was waiting. Sylvie sets it up as a small round side table, and lifts the top off the base whenever the room needs the space back.

  • 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 finish has been mostly sanded to raw wood. Because of its folding construction, a slight wiggle is normal while remaining fully functional. The tabletop and base are separate pieces that secure together with a metal hook and wooden dowel.
