Antique Marquetry Burr Walnut Wine Table Inlaid with St. George And The Dragon
900,00€
Burl Walnut Wine Table with a Circular Top Inlaid with St. George and the Dragon an eclectic piece of furniture that stands out for the complexity of its craftsmanship and the quality of its materials. This is a gueridon in the classical style, attributable to 19th-century European artistic production (often Italian or English) or inspired by the Neo-Renaissance/Eclectic style. The tabletop is the true highlight of the piece, featuring rich decoration in walnut burl, recognizable by its characteristic swirling and “eyelet-like” grain patterns that create a deep, marbled visual effect. At the center stands out a fine boxwood inlay depicting St. George and the Dragon, a classic iconography symbolizing the victory of good over evil. The central figure is enclosed in a slender circular frame, with four “cardinal point” floral motifs that evoke the Baroque or Renaissance style. The perimeter of the tabletop features a band carved in relief with foliage (acanthus) motifs, which lends depth and visual significance to the structure. The leg is richly turned and carved. It features a central bulb decorated with acanthus leaves and pods, ensuring stability and aesthetic continuity with the rest of the piece. The table rests on a three-legged base decorated with volute carvings and ending in scroll or “claw” feet, typical of artistic cabinetmaking. The three-legged design is not only elegant but also ensures excellent stability on surfaces that are not perfectly flat. In good condition, apart from minor losses of burl on the top consistent with a date of late 1800s. The listed price does not include shipping costs.
