Ormolu mounted mahogany antique oval shaped two tiered table

This beautiful tiered side table—or étagère—is crafted from mahogany and ormolu in an elegant Neoclassical style. The table features an oval top encompassed by a pierced ormolu gallery, which is set above an apron mounted with pierced ormolu panels of intricately scrolling rinceaux. The four legs are straight until they hit the lower shelf stretcher, then continue to the floor as cabrioles. The lower shelf is encompassed by an ormolu drapery moulded frieze, while the legs are set to the shoulders of the cabrioles and the feet with foliate mounts. The tabletop is centred with a roundel of mother-of-pearl.
