Provenance
Lombardy
Style
Louis XVI
Period
1780
Truncated pyramidal legs
This leg shape is typical of Louis XVI furniture. In fact, it is characterized by straight, non-curved lines, unlike Louis XV furniture.
Authenticity
The game table is completely intact and original from the 18th century.
Its integrity can also be seen from the bottom of the table.
Quality
The table is finely inlaid in every part. The quality of the inlay and the rarity of the table lie mainly in the complexity of the inlay on the top.
