A Tribute to Louis XVI Splendour
This magnificent round centre table is a faithful homage to the grandeur of late 18th-century French Neoclassical design. Inspired by the opulent interiors of Versailles, every curve and carved detail reflects the refined restraint and aristocratic elegance that define the Louis XVI era. Brass & Wood artisans in Egypt have meticulously recreated this icon, ensuring each piece carries the soul of European royal craftsmanship.
Materials of Distinction
The circular top is fashioned from genuine Portoro marble — celebrated for its dramatic black ground threaded with luminous gold veining — offering both breathtaking beauty and enduring durability. The sculpted base is crafted from kiln-dried solid wood, hand-finished in genuine gold leaf, lending a warm, radiant lustre that deepens with time.
Ornamental Mastery
Every surface of the base tells a story: egg-and-dart mouldings encircle the apron; lush floral swags and laurel wreaths cascade between four elegantly tapered, acanthus-carved legs; and a central X-stretcher cradles an exquisitely detailed ornamental urn — a signature motif of the Neoclassical vocabulary. The result is a table that commands attention without sacrificing harmony.
Handcrafted by Brass & Wood
Each piece is individually made to order in Brass & Wood's workshops, where traditional joinery and hand-gilding techniques passed down through generations meet rigorous quality standards. This table is equally at home as a grand entryway centrepiece, a palatial salon focal point, or the crown jewel of a luxury reception space.
