Arte Di Tarsia Rolo Inlaid Walnut Table

Round walnut top table decorated with rich marquetry. The top represents a geometric trompe l'oeil checkerboard decoration of great beauty. The edges end with a geometric succession of triangular points. The outer edges are also marquetry. This Table rests on a generously turned and molded central shaft, finished with three cut-out legs. Designed in the Restoration style, they are widely offset, thus guaranteeing perfect stability of the whole. Also note their composition in solid walnut, compared to other furniture of this period more commonly equipped with veneer legs. Under the top is a partially torn old label probably mentioning the name of the first patron "Al Signore Caprare Giulio, Modena" The table is the remarkable and unequaled testimony of the Arte di Tarsia in Rolo in Italy, know-how of generations of artists and craftsmen known for the extreme finesse of the marquetry used. A museum devotes this art in Italy. The table dates from around the mid-1800s. It was revised by a cabinetmaker MOF in 2024. Total height: 76 cm Diameter: 86 cm Dimensions length at the level of the legs: 65 cm
