Black Swans Wood Carved Coffee Table
A gorgeous swans coffee table imported from France and originating in the 1970s. Two elegant black and gold gilded wooden swans face apart sat atop an oval pedestal; together they hold up a bevelled sheet of oval glass. Each swan is hand carved and finished in black with gold leaf touches. This graceful centrepiece would look stunning in almost any style of living room, such is its versatility.
The paint is a bit flakey in some parts, but this adds to the charm, and is very much what you would expect given its age. To create each swan, four carved pieces of wood were conjoined. Due to this method, you can occasionally see the join where two pieces meet.
