Antique French Maison Mottheau Games Table C.1880 – Ormolu, Parquetry Top

£1,850    $2,486    €2,106
A superb 19th-century French games table attributed to Maison Mottheau, one of the celebrated Parisian makers known for their exceptional bronze work and refined Louis XVI-inspired furniture.
 
This piece showcases exquisite gilt-bronze ormolu mounts, a beautifully executed parquetry top, and elegant tapered legs finished with finely cast foliate sabots. The frieze is richly decorated with an intertwined laurel and berry ormolu band—a hallmark of high-end Parisian craftsmanship of the late 19th century.
 
The table opens to reveal its original green baize interior, ideal for cards, chess, or occasional use.
 
The proportions are slim, elegant, and perfect for hallways, living rooms, or refined interior spaces.
 
Maison Mottheau was renowned for supplying luxury furnishings and lighting to Parisian elites in the late 19th century, and this table is an excellent example of their artistry.
