First half 19th century French provincial walnut & fruitwood vigneron, wine tasting table on trestle base. AA2464

Been some years since I’ve stocked one of these, this one in particular being the largest I have seen.
The large perfectly faded and patinated circular five plank folding top, on two rectangular upright supports, having an attractive lyre-shaped twisting central support, retaining the original steel guide attached below the top. Resting on bold long sledge-feet.
C.1840   H.73cm   Dia.118cm
These tables were originally used for champagne and wine tastings in the French vineyards.
The upright folding mechanism was perfect for easy moving and storage.
The French, as always had such clever furniture design.
Note, the once perfectly round top has the expected shrinkage,
so measures 118 x 114cm due to cross grain shrinkage.
Another private purchase, everything included in my retirement sale, until end of year.
