An exceptionally fine French Charles X center table of figured mahogany, which was carefully chosen and book-matched for maximum effect. The table has an unusually complex and elegant central baluster support: hexagonal in form, reeded all the way around and with multiple mouldings, resting on a finely carved tripodal base. The base is fitted with leather casters under the lion paw feet, and as with the baluster, is elegantly carved, here with classical details of palmettes and rectangular rosettes. The Bleu Turquin marble top is original, with the signature moulded rim of the period, ca. 1830. This marble was a French favorite for high style furniture and mantel pieces, and much in demand in the 18th and 19th centuries. Very good antique condition, fine French polished finish, some typical signs of age, the marble top with some wear to the surface.
