Set of 3 Louis XV Antique Nesting Tables — Kingwood Marquetry Inlay Tops, Hand-Carved Floral Apron, Cabriole Legs with Bronze Sabots

Description

A rare and exceptional find, this Set of 3 Louis XV Antique Nesting Tables represents the very pinnacle of classical French furniture craftsmanship. The largest table top displays a breathtaking quartered kingwood veneer with a hand-crafted floral marquetry inlay at the centre — each petal and stem laid individually by a master craftsman — framed by a continuous beaded gilt brass border trim around the entire top edge.

The apron of the largest table is richly carved with a central floral rosette flanked by scrolling acanthus leaves and foliate relief in the full Louis XV manner. All tables stand on slender, gracefully curved cabriole legs that conclude in distinctive bronze sabot (claw-style) feet — an authentic period detail that speaks to the extraordinary heritage of this piece. The two smaller tables feature matching quartered veneer tops and the same refined cabriole leg profile. A true collector’s set — as much a work of art as it is a functional piece of furniture.
