Description

A French Napoleon iii style walnut & onyx 2 tier tea table with bronze ormolu mounts and handles.

c1900

Sadly the onyx top has been damaged at sometime in its life, hence the price. These tables ususally fetch inbetween £1200-£1450

The rest of the table is in stunning condition. The top is fine to use.

Someone in the past has repaired it and the cracks do look like veins you would normally get in marble or onyx. Lovely to use for its intended purpose or as a display table for your favourite trinkets

This Napoleon III style two-tier tea table dates from approximately 1900 and exhibits French Chateau design influences. Constructed from dark brown mahogany with cream and brownish-grey onyx and gleaming gold-coloured ormolu and brass mounts, the piece displays a rectangular serpentine edge on both levels. The upper tier features an onyx inset top shelf with visible historic cracks resembling natural stone veins, while the lower mahogany shelf includes cast metal side handles. Supported by four slender cabriole legs decorated with ornate gilded bronze mounts and foliate scroll appliqués, the structure stands at 88 cm high, 84 cm wide, and 49 cm deep. Practical for placement at the end of a sofa or as a functional display surface for decorative trinkets, this tiered table brings classic European styling to a living room interior. The combination of polished timber, decorative metal hardware, and the dual-shelf arrangement provides both surface area and distinct visual character suitable for traditional or eclectic spaces.

FAQs

The Napoleon III style originated in France during the Second Empire in the mid-to-late 19th century and is characterised by eclectic revivals of earlier French periods, incorporating dark woods, stone inlays, and detailed metal mounts.

These tables typically feature dense hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or kingwood, combined with decorative stone inlays like onyx or marble, framed by cast brass or bronze ormolu mounts.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-chased metal mounts fitted precisely to the wooden frame, natural oxidisation on the underside of metallic fittings, and traditional joinery such as mortise and tenon construction.

A two-tier table functions effectively as an occasional side table beside a lounge chair or sofa, offering a upper surface for drinks and a lower tier for books or decorative objects.

Dust wooden surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and apply clear beeswax annually, while gilt-bronze mounts should be cleaned strictly with a dry, soft-bristled brush to preserve the delicate patina.
