Antique German Wine Table or Stand with Hand-Carved Saying and Sculptural Legs

This one of a kind table will appeal to spiritual people and collectors of stylish, rare and meaningful antiques from all walks of life and from many countries accross the globe. To us, this rare table ticks all the boxes and we, again, felt blessed for it to come our way. Just like, through our hands, we expect it to find exactly the right custodians somewhere on the planet. The design and the symbolism in this antique, is what makes it so much more than just a table. The tripod base is made of three, all hand-carved, grape branch-design sculptural legs of the finest quality. However, what makes this piece stand out from anything you may have ever seen is the carved saying. All hand-carved into the solid wooden rim of this table is an old German saying. It reads: “ISS WAS GAR IST, TRINK WAS KLAR IST, SPRICH WAS WAHR IST”. This roughly translates to: eat what is (well) done, drink what is pure and speak what is true. These three ‘commandments’ seem very good advise for any individual.

The table top is ever so slightly bent, but it does not take anything away from the beauty or practicality of this unique table. This marvelous and solid wooden table is inlaid with leather, has a beautiful patina and she is as stable as the day she was handcrafted all those years ago.
