C19th French Kingwood Marble Top Centre Table

19th century
Description

Superb C19th French kingwood marble top centre table; exceptional gilt bronze mounts; the top of circular form with projecting corners having the striking 'Breche Violet' marble top housed in a gilt brass moulding, above the sweeping frieze with gilt bronze Rocaille design embellishments. Raised on elegant cabriole legs having large finely cast gilt bronze classical female heads, being unusual that the heads are different subjects. The whole of the table having slender gilt bronze moulded edges and the legs terminating in original bronze sabots. The table stands slightly taller than the norm, giving a strong presence. Almost certainly made in one of the prominent Parisian workshops.

French circa 1860

Very good original condition; the mounts have a lovely patina but can be cleaned to show a brighter gilt appearance if desired.

Dimensions (ins) 41 diameter x 30 high

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

A French centre table, or table de milieu, was designed to be finished on all sides so it could stand in the centre of a salon or foyer rather than against a wall. Popularised in the 18th and 19th centuries, these tables often feature ornate marquetry, bronze orormolu mounts, and contoured marble tops.

Craftsmen frequently used exotic wood veneers such as kingwood, tulipwood, and rosewood applied over an oak or pine carcass. Decorative accents often included cast ormolu (gilt bronze) mounts and fitted marble tops, constructed with traditional joinery techniques.

Authentic pieces feature signs of hand-planed joinery, age-appropriate wear on the underside of the frame, and natural patina on the gilding and metal mounts. Look for thick timber veneers, hand-chased bronze fittings, and unpolished structural surfaces beneath the top.

Position the piece as a central focal point in an entryway or grand hallway topped with a simple ceramic vessel or decorative object. Pairing detailed 19th-century woodwork with modern architecture creates an engaging balance of historical and contemporary design.

Dust the timber veneer regularly with a soft microfibre cloth, maintaining stable humidity to prevent veneer lifting. Clean the marble surface using a pH-neutral cleaner formulated for natural stone to protect the original finish from etching.
