Description

A late Victorian walnut tripod Sorrento table, the circular top centred by an eight-point geometric star medallion in contrasting decorative veneers, framed by concentric parquetry and fine line-inlaid borders, above a turned pedestal with ebonised sections and inlaid banded decoration, all raised on three shaped scrolling legs with herringbone inlaid shoulders.

The circular top unscrews from the pedestal, a practical detail consistent with the portable nature of Sorrento tables of this type.

Very good antique condition with some surface wear and fine veneer movement consistent with age. Structurally sound, clean and ready to place.

Italian, circa 1880.

H: 61.5 W: 50 D: 50 cm

FAQs

Sorrento marquetry originated in the Campania region of Italy and is characterised by intricate wood mosaic work, often depicting geometric patterns, floral motifs, or architectural scenes using contrasting natural timbers.

These pieces typically employ a variety of indigenous and exotic hardwoods, such as walnut, olive, maple, and ebony, finely sliced into veneers and hand-cut to create pictorial or geometric designs on a solid wood base.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-cut veneer irregularities, traditional animal-hide glue shrinkage, aged patina on the timber, and often subtle maker stamps or paper labels underneath the tabletop or within the pedestal construction.

A historical piece adds texture and craftsmanship to a modern setting when used as a freestanding accent table, allowing the detailed surface geometric work to serve as a focal point without competing furniture.

Maintain marquetry by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer lifting and timber cracking, applying occasional microcrystalline wax to nourish the wood without sealing it.
