French Walnut Marquetry Side Table
c. 1900 · France
This piece is available at $890 CAD. It is too big to go in an ordinary parcel, so the carriage is not included: tell me where you are and I will quote it honestly before you pay anything, or you are very welcome to collect it.
Paying by card on the site is not switched on yet, so I arrange each sale myself: write to me and I will confirm the piece is still here, photograph it for you, put it on hold while you think, and tell you how to pay. I will say in that note exactly how to pay and what the total is, and nothing is paid until you have agreed it. I will never ask you for a card number, and I will never ask you to pay in gift cards.
I am Sally, and I answer every message myself, usually within a day or two. If you need it by a particular day — a birthday, a wedding — tell me the date in your note and I will say straight away whether it can be done. Outside Canada? Write anyway and I will quote the carriage honestly before you commit to anything.
How delivery and returns work.
About this piece
A small walnut side table with a marquetry top in a ribbon pattern, on cabriole legs. The veneer is original and has the soft, uneven colour that only comes with age. One back leg has an old repair, done properly, which you can see underneath but not from any angle you would normally look at it.
Where it came from
This came out of a farmhouse clearance near Trois-Rivieres, under a pile of blankets. The woman selling it apologised for the state of it. I bought it on the spot.
