4 Italian Nesting Tables Made Of Ebony And Ivory – Late 19th Century

An elegant set of nesting tables of Italian origin, dating from the late 19th century, remarkable for the quality and finesse of its decoration.

Each tabletop is richly crafted from ebony veneer, featuring superb cube marquetry, creating that striking effect of depth and relief characteristic of high-quality geometric compositions.

The decoration is enhanced by exquisitely fine ivory marquetry, consisting of delicate fillets, architecturally designed panels, and beautiful ornamental motifs at the corners and in the center of the tabletops. The contrast between the deep black of the ebony and the whiteness of the ivory lends the set a particularly refined elegance.

The structure, the turned legs, and the crossbars are also meticulously crafted, creating a beautiful aesthetic unity when the four tables are placed together.

A rare and decorative set, reflecting the remarkable Italian cabinetmaking and marquetry craftsmanship of the late 19th century. A particularly attractive piece for both a classic interior and a more contemporary setting, where it will make a striking statement and showcase the exquisite craftsmanship.
