Historical notes and mobile curiosities

A few years ago one of our antique dealer customers asked us to restore an original 1700 living room table. Brought to our laboratory, we were struck by the grace of the lines and, given the strong demand for oval-shaped tables, on courtesy of our client we decided to reproduce it faithfully. All the necessary shapes have been traced, from the shape of the legs, to the connecting cross, up to the oval shape of the top, activities necessary to be able to reproduce it by hand.
