EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exquisite beauty of a Napoleon III centre table, crafted in 1856 by the talented Jean Pierre Alexandre Tahan. Made from rosewood and enamel, this stunning piece stands at an impressive 82x157x93 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The intricate details of this table are truly awe-inspiring. Its ornate floral decoration, parquetry design, and delicate wooden inlay showcase the masterful craftsmanship that was characteristic of Parisian furniture during the Rococo period. The gilt accents and enamelled mounts add a touch of opulence to its already lavish appearance. Every inch of this centre table tells a story - from its herms adorned with polychrome flowers to its meticulously decorated surface. The combination of woodwork and ormolu creates a harmonious blend between functionality and artistic expression. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only the skill involved in creating such an extraordinary piece but also the beauty it brings to any space lucky enough to house it. It serves as a testament to the rich history of decorative arts during Napoleon III's reign, reminding us of an era when furniture was not just functional but also served as works of art.
