Petit Folding Table

France, 19th Century

$595

Antique One-Of-A-Kind Wood

A good folding table is handy, but a petite rectangular one from Avignon with carved feet and a clever wooden brace feels like striking gold. This early 20th century piece was built for quick setup in tight farmhouse kitchens, then folded flat to lean against a wall when life needed the space back. Its unusual long top makes it perfect now beside a sofa, as a petite hallway perch, or even as a laptop table. Sylvie likes it for impromptu aperitif duty, ready to appear and disappear with a simple lift of the hand.

Notes from Sylvie:

As with many antiques, this piece may show gentle repairs, cracks, scratches, holes, years worth of patina, and stains - just the way we like it. Because of its moving mechanism these tables tend to have a bit of a wiggle to them, they are still perfectly functional though.
