Very old marketry table.

[Dave Hawksford]

Sanding and filling. This is just the top. I've done the legs and I have a lower shelf. Everything is marketry on this piece. 18th century Flemish Library table. Another friend says at the table. It's possibly earlier, 17th century.

The marquetry on that piece is amazing!

What a piece. Wonder how long the artist took to make it originally?

Posted blocks , instead of ivory I cheated and stenciled the white then brushed the white. 7 blocks. 6 hours.
