Wine table with twisted column and tripod base – 19th century
Antique wine table (guéridon) with twist column
An elegant wine table or guéridon from the 19th century. The round top rests on a beautifully twisted column (barley twist) with a turned knop, supported by a tripod with gracefully scrolled feet. The wood has a warm, honey-brown colour.
Why we chose this table
The twisted column is the heart of this piece: skilfully turned and still gleaming after all these years. Small enough for any home, large enough to hold a lamp, a glass of wine or a plant.
Style and interior
Wonderful next to an armchair or sofa in a classic, English or country interior, and as a plant table a lovely addition to an eclectic scheme.
Condition
The top shows stains and rings from use, and the undersides of the legs have old wear and lacquer residue. Honest antique with character.
Dimensions: height 73.5 cm, top diameter 43.7 cm
Material: wood (walnut)
Period: 19th century
Condition: signs of use. The top has rings, light stains and fading. The undersides of the legs are rough and worn, with remnants of old dark paint. Old glue joints and small shrinkage cracks are visible where the legs join the column. The twisted column is intact. Sturdy enough for normal use.
