A BOHEMIAN WALNUT AND FRUITWOOD MARQUETRY-INLAID INDIAN ROSEWOOD CENTRE TABLE
SIGNED C. WURKNER, THIRD-QUARTER 19TH CENTURY
The radially veneered top with central palmette-inlaid panel, the border made up of concentric circles containing arabesques between chequered bands, the faceted vase-shape pedestal inlaid to the facets 'C.WURKNER' on a circular platform on thee ebonised lion's-paw monopodia, printed paper label to underside 'C.F. WÜRK..../KUNSTTISCHL.../IN/KAR...ND IM BÖHMISCHEN S...'
28 in. (73 cm.) high; 49 in. (124 cm.) diameter

專家說明

The inlaid name to the pedestal is intriguing, and, when examined in conjunction with the remnants of the apparently contemporary paper label to the underside, seems most likely to betray the identity of the craftsman responsible for this intricate marquetry centre table. The decoration seems to draw heavily on the work generally associated with the famous Italian marquetry produced in the Sorrento and Mantua regions, suggesting that if Wurkner is responsible for this table that he likely trained in Italy.
