Tea Table By Emile Gallé
Tea table by Emile Gallé
Emile Gallé's virtuosity was not confined to glassware, a medium he revolutionized, but also extended to furniture. Numerous creations bear witness to the intelligence of the artist who knew how to combine beauty, elegance and functionality. The legs and racks are finely sculpted, and the tops are decorated with delicate, sophisticated marquetry reminiscent of the elaborate Louis XV style. Bronze side handles make it easy to move the table for entertaining.
The tea table is characteristic of a period when the art of entertaining went hand in hand with the refinement of interior decoration.
