French Louis XVI style paint-decorated side table, 20th c., having ovular inset onyx top, over frame in an intentionally distressed white-painted finish, the apron with a molded twisted ribbon trim, rising on stretcher-joined fluted and tapered legs, ending on arrow feet, approx 22"h, 28.75"w, 20.5"d

02.07.25: In my opinion regarding LOT 2329: I note that the table is presently intact, the onyx top being free from observed chips or hairlines/ fractures, having a shellac finish applied that has slightly yellowed and has visible air bubbles under the surface, the trim of tabletop with separation at one side currently remaining secure, as described the painted decoration has an inherent distressed finish, as well as having scattered chipped losses, including to the gilt-painted trim, as is typical and commensurate with use, I observe typical minor surface wear such as small nicks and abrasions commensurate with age and use
