A beautifully crafted Italian marquetry sewing table, this octagonal worktable showcases the intricate inlay and decorative precision associated with Sorrento craftsmanship. The top features an ornate mosaic-style marquetry design in fruitwoods, creating a warm, detailed centrepiece that celebrates traditional Italian artisan work.
The lid lifts to reveal a fitted interior with segmented compartments — ideal for sewing materials, craft items, jewellery, or keepsakes (comes with the pictured sewing kit included!) Slender cabriole legs and delicate inlaid flourishes along the sides add a sense of elegance and lightness, making this a versatile accent piece suitable for any study, living room, or dressing area.
