Pair of Louis XVI bedside tables in solid walnut, inlaid with maple – Veneto/Friuli, late 18th century

Elegant pair of Louis XVI style bedside tables, made of solid walnut and embellished with refined maple threading. Originating from the Veneto or Friuli area, these pieces of furniture date back to the late 18th century. The sober but harmonious design is characterized by a truncated pyramidal leg, an upper drawer and a lower door with a panel framed by a thread inlay. The bedside tables are not perfectly identical: one of the two is about 2 cm wider, a detail that underlines their craftsmanship. Approximate dimensions: width 45.5 cm, depth 34 cm, height 82 cm.
