This exquisite “rolino” table, dating to the 19th century, is a masterclass in ornamental woodworking, showcasing intricate geometric inlays composed of various fine wood species. The top features a mesmerizing starburst motif radiating from the center, framed by concentric bands of contrasting marquetry that highlight the cabinetmaker’s precision and artistry.
Supported by a turned central pedestal resting on three gracefully scrolled legs, the table blends architectural harmony with decorative richness. The walnut base and inlay patterns possess a warm patina that speaks to its age and excellent preservation.
Elegant yet versatile, this table is ideal as a centerpiece in an entryway, salon, or intimate sitting area. Pieces from Rolo are highly sought after for their exceptional quality and signature aesthetic, making this table both a beautiful decorative object and a collectible piece of Italian furniture history.
