Trestle table in larch wood, made in the Lombardy area in the last quarter of the 18th century.
The structure is set on two trestles joined by longitudinal crosspieces and crossed braces that give stability and lightness to the whole. The top, composed of thick boards, retains a natural patina of extraordinary authenticity, matured over two centuries of use.
On the front there is a large through drawer, a typical element of tables intended for everyday use and intended for the storage of household and work tools.
The absence of any ornamental research highlights the functional nature of the furniture, in which the quality of the workmanship and the choice of material prevail over the decorative aspect. This essentiality today constitutes one of the elements of greatest fascination for contemporary collecting and interior design.
The structure retains construction characteristics consistent with late eighteenth-century production, combined with a uniform patina and wear perfectly compatible with the age of the work.
