Title

Rich in rustic charm and Provençal personality, this 19th century French Louis XVI style farm table from Arles captures the essence of southern French country life. Handcrafted circa 1870s, the table beautifully blends the rustic honesty of country craftsmanship with the refined neoclassical sensibilities of the late 18th century. 

 

A beautifully bleached walnut top with a softly worn grain offers the perfect contrast to the original polychrome painted base below. Finished in delightfully faded shades of pale blue and chalky white — a quintessential Provençal palette seen throughout the sun-drenched countryside — the timeworn surface reveals subtle layers of paint and history, imbuing the table with an unmistakable storybook charm. In Arles, a historic town celebrated for its Roman roots and vibrant artistic heritage, painted furniture like this was often created to brighten the stone-walled interiors of country homes, bringing both color and cheer into daily life. 

 

Raised on four straight tapered legs in the neoclassical Louis XVI style, this table is as versatile as it is handsome. The exceptional depth (41.25") makes it particularly suited for use as a generous dining table, a rustic kitchen work table, a library table, or center table in a large foyer. Whether placed in a French country kitchen or used as a stylish centerpiece in a boutique interior, this antique table offers authentic character and history in every inch. Warm, welcoming, and authentically Provençal, this painted table brings the romance of southern France home — with a patina only time can produce.
