This is the Louis XVI Neoclassical table at its most articulate: symmetrical, disciplined, and alive with surface ornament that never tips into excess.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaterials \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe oval top is a study in the marqueteur's art. A central roundel of hand-cut floral marquetry — blooms, leaves, and stems assembled from contrasting veneers — sits within a framework of oval panels and quarter-cut veneered sections, all finished to a deep French polish that gives the surface its characteristic luminosity. The apron is banded with two continuous runs of gilt bronze ormolu: a finer laurel-wreath chain above and a heavier acanthus-scroll frieze below, with a central floral cartouche as the visual anchor. Four round, tapered, and fluted legs — capped with square gilt bronze collars at the top and gilt sabots at the foot — support the structure and connect to a lower shelf finished in matching quarter-cut veneer, itself edged with a dentil-pattern ormolu gallery. The frame is built from Romanian solid redwood at under 10% humidity, guaranteeing dimensional stability in varied climates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDimensions \u0026amp; Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe oval format — wider than it is deep — makes this table ideal for placement beside a sofa arm, in a salon bay, or centered in a hallway where it can be appreciated from all sides. The lower shelf provides practical display space for books, a decorative tray, or a small object of art, while keeping the visual mass of the piece light and open. Dimensions are available on request; the table is offered in customizable sizes to suit your specific interior.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandcrafted in Egypt\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery element of this table is produced by hand in Brass \u0026amp; Wood's Egyptian workshops, drawing on a tradition of European classical reproduction that combines French-trained marquetry technique with precision ormolu casting. The gilt bronze mounts are individually cast, chased, and applied; the marquetry top is hand-cut and assembled veneer by veneer; the French polish is built up in successive layers by hand. This is not a mass-produced piece — it is a faithful interpretation of the Louis XVI Neoclassical tradition, made to last.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat materials is this table made from?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe frame and legs are built from Romanian solid redwood (under 10% humidity).
