Louis XVI Ivory & Gold Leaf Tea Trolley with Hand-Painted Florals
Royal Elegance Reborn
This Brass & Wood tea trolley is a faithful tribute to the refined neoclassical aesthetic of the Louis XVI court. Three tiers of gracefully proportioned surfaces invite ceremonial tea service, while the ivory lacquer ground and warm gold-leaf accents evoke the gilded salons of Versailles. Hand-painted bouquets of blush roses and delicate foliage drift across each shelf, transforming a functional piece into a work of art.
Exceptional Materials
Constructed from solid hardwood dressed in flawlessly applied ivory lacquer, every structural element is reinforced and accented with hand-chased solid-brass ormolu mounts — swag garlands, acanthus corner blocks, and ring-turned column capitals. The uppermost tier features a pierced brass gallery rail that secures precious porcelain during service, while brass ball-and-claw castors allow effortless movement across any floor.
Handcrafted Artistry
Each piece emerges from the Brass & Wood atelier in Egypt, where master craftsmen apply gold leaf by hand, carve and chase brass ornaments individually, and execute the floral paintings in the tradition of eighteenth-century European decorative arts. No two trolleys are identical — minor natural variations in the hand-painted florals are the hallmark of authentic artisanal production.
Dimensions & Use
Perfectly scaled for a drawing room, bedroom, or luxury hospitality suite, this trolley accommodates full tea sets on each tier. The central drawer discreetly stores tea accessories, maintaining an immaculate presentation at all times.
