Louis XIII Manor Table in Oak – 17th century – Corrèze – [ME091]
On the four legs of this beautiful dining room table, one can see wood turning reminiscent of the beginnings of the Louis XIII style. The central base of the crosspiece is reinforced by a support called “the fifth leg.” This reinforcement is necessary due to the unusual length of the top (2 meters 26), a top made of thick oak boards.

Walnut Reception Table in Louis XIII style – 19th century – Périgord – [ME092]
What illuminates this elegant large table is its warm, clear patina, honey-toned, which warms both its 2 meter top and the entirety of its pedestal. Shaped in the flourishing Louis XIII style, it boasts a balustrade turning on its pedestal, a turning that also enhances its usually simpler chat rail. This rich ornamentation reflects that which cabinetmakers in furniture conceived at the peak of the Louis XIII era.
