Pair Of Neo-renaissance Side Tables – Second Half Of The 19th Century

Elegant pair of Neo-Renaissance side tables dating to the second half of the 19th century, carved from solid wood in full round carving and finished with a dark original patina.At first glance, their slender proportions and central shaft may recall large period candlesticks; however, the fully carved structure on all sides, with no unfinished areas, clearly indicates that these pieces were originally conceived as tables rather than converted elements. This feature distinctly differentiates them from church candlesticks, which are typically carved only on the visible faces.The circular tops rest on turned and richly carved central columns, ending in trilobed bases decorated with foliage and scroll motifs, characteristic of the Neo-Renaissance taste of the 19th century. The overall composition is well balanced, refined, and visually striking.Perfect as side or occasional tables, stands for sculptures, vases, or lamps, or as decorative accents in classical or eclectic interiors.Period: Second half of the 19th centuryStyle: Neo-RenaissanceMaterial: Carved woodFinish: Original dark patinaHeight: 69.5 cmTop diameter: 29.5 cmCondition: Good overall condition, with wear consistent with age
