This distinctive table blends form and function, while creating a versatile piece.
A favored purchase of DD2′s for her home was a reproduction French wine tasting table. It’s small in size, but big in character – raw, aged oak with hand joinery. She’s currently using it as a living room side table, but it would also function nicely as a bedside table. A larger, dark antique version [top] grounds this all white kitchen.
Another antique table is paired with two Belgian club chairs in this year round, Swedish inspired conservatory.
These tables were original found and used in wine cellars throughout Italy and France. The flip top enables easy transportation to the vineyard for lunch or tucking against the wall in small wine caves. Reproductions can be purchased online at Whit McLeod, August Haven and Mecox Gardens. Local antique stores, 1st dibs and Ruby Lane often have vintage wine tasting tables in their inventory.
