This is a beautiful antique octagonal occasional table, from Sorrento in Italy, circa 1860 in date.
It was hand crafted from walnut and olive wood. The base and stem have been masterfully inlaid, in geometric patterns and the top has wonderful parquetry decoration.
In the centre there is a marquetry panel of St. George and the Dragon which is three dimensional in effect. Around the top there is a striking band of inlaid parquetry decoration.
It is a lovely and decorative piece which would suit most interiors.
