Historic round side table made of oak, crafted around 1900, featuring a turned base and cross-braced legs. Its compact height, closed circular form, and rhythmically structured frame give the piece a clear, elegant presence. Historical Context: Small round side tables of this type were used around the turn of the century as versatile accent pieces in living spaces. They stood next to upholstered furniture, in salons, ladies’ rooms, or smaller sitting areas, and served as a place to set down books, small items, handicrafts, or lighting. Features: Turned legs and connecting struts in a uniform, rhythmic arrangement; round tabletop with a segmented wooden surface and a profiled edge running around the perimeter. Design: The table’s form bridges the gap between late historicist interior design and a more simplified, everyday-use aesthetic around 1900. Its defining features are the compact round shape, the vertically accentuated turned legs, and the cross-shaped, stabilized base with spindle-shaped crossbars. Function: Historically: a small side table or coffee table for living rooms, often used as a versatile surface in seating areas or smaller rooms. Today: can be used as a side table, lamp table, or low accent table in living rooms, hallways, or next to individual armchairs. Dimensions in cm: Height 58 / Diameter 50 Material and condition: Oak. Very good condition with few signs of wear, patina. The wood surface shows a natural patina; sturdy and refinished.
