Marquetry Writing Table: An exceptional 19th century English marquetry and parquetry writing table in the Louis XVI manner, the kidney shaped embossed leather top bordered by burr walnut and figured walnut inlaid with flowers and kingwood cross-banded border over a shaped frieze profusely inlaid with flowers and scrolls flanked by four geometric parquetry corners with gilded bronze mounts in the form of olive-leaves and ribbons supported on tulipwood and purple-heart turnings above elegantly tapering faceted legs which meet a marquetry and parquetry serpentine stretcher terminating in four tapering brass castors.

Re-polishing or Waxing

As part of restoration, we can clean and gently re-polish and or wax this piece of antique furniture depending on your individual taste. Our French polisher has been with us for 40 years, and does everything by hand. No spray guns, and no nasty polyurethane sprays. Polishing allows the grain of the piece of furniture to become evident once again, and waxing provides a soft glow, however there is also the option to keep the piece in totally original condition if this is your preference. To discuss the best restoration option for this piece please don’t hesitate to phoneor email us.
