This elegant antique French gueridon table is a fine example of the renowned ironwork produced by the Arras Manufacture in Northern France, a workshop celebrated for its high-quality, hand-forged garden furniture dating back to the 19th century. Note the maker's mark in the middle of the stretchers. Arras iron pieces are known for their refined craftsmanship, durability, and unique design elements, such as the iconic lion-paw feet seen on this table. Constructed from heavy, sand-cast wrought iron, this piece is sturdy and stable, designed to withstand outdoor elements and the test of time, developing a beautiful patina that enhances its antique appeal.
With gracefully curved legs joined by a central ring, this gueridon combines elegance with rustic charm, featuring a richly weathered finish that adds character. Perfect as a side table in a garden, patio, or conservatory, it brings a touch of French country charm and antique sophistication to any space. Whether used as a plant stand, drinks table, or decorative accent, this piece is a testament to the enduring legacy, stability, and artistry of Arras ironwork.
