Table - Walnut, Maple, Cherry wood, Olive - Sorrentino, 19th century

Splendid antique inlaid gaming table with a chessboard top, a classic example of the very highest Italian handcrafted cabinetmaking of the 19th century. The structure is characterized by the Louis-Philippe style, easily recognizable for the hand-inlaid square top, combining several precious woods (walnut, cherry, maple, olive) to create the geometric chessboard motif and the ornamental perimetral frame; central turned leg with bulbous, shaped elements decorated with refined fluted geometric motifs; three-legged base (tripod), finely inlaid with contrasting woods (often walnut or maple), typical of the prestigious productions of specialized centers of the era, such as the Sorrentina manufacture or the Rolo manufacture. Tables of this type were designed not only as elegant and functional living-room furnishings but also for moments of leisure devoted to playing chess or checkers.
