An Ormolu-Mounted Parquetry Card Table
In the Louis XVI Style
Constructed from bois satiné, mahogany and boxwood stringing with ormolu mounts throughout, the card table supported on tapering fluted legs with gilt bronze toupie feet and acanthus ring capitals with floriate paterae above, the frieze centred by an ormolu mount of a bacchic scene flanked by panels of lozenge parquetry inlays also repeated on the sides and top, designed to fold open and reveal a green baize-lined playing surface when the concertina-action table is extended.
French, circa 1890
