19th century satinwood inlaid folding tea table attributed to the renowned House of Giroux, Paris.
The rectangular top tier sits above the concave shaped tier, but both are made with book-matched satinwood veneers and crossbanded with mahogany, boxwood and ebony stringing. The gilt brass banded surrounds have been recessed and inset with engine turned upright flutes.
The tea table is metamorphic and collapses down to a flat decorative stand and, when used, the tiers are raised and supported on shaped solid mahogany lopers. The folding table is raised on a shaped base and the feet are typical of the Giroux name.
The design and model is known to be made by the ''Distinguished Firm of Maison Giroux''.
The V&A Museum have a Circular Tazza, that was made by the Parisian luxury company ''Maison Giroux'' in their collection. I have listed a hyperlink below:
