Small low pedestal table by Emile Gallé. Art Nouveau period, school of Nancy. Magpie motif in oak foliage. Very beautiful molded beech base. This small table is the counterpart of the Jay table. The quality of the marquetry is exceptional, due to the variety of species and the complexity of their arrangement. Superb Japanese signature hidden in an oak leaf. Good condition .
