Beautiful Art Nouveau beech and light oak tea table by Emile Gallé (1846-1904).
This rectangular table with two tops features a rich inlaid decoration of Lorraine thistles and a Lorraine cross on a light oak background. The mix of light and colored wood veneers forms an inlay that is both realistic and poetic. The shelves feature an overhanging surround with mitered baguette molding.
This sideboard has four carved legs in curved beech, arching outwards. They are carved with hollowed flutes on the front. They add lightness to the whole.
The lower right-hand top features the artist's engraved signature "Emile Gallé Nancy" and the monogram "EG" accompanied by a small cross.
This patriotic table, dear to the artist, highlights his love for Lorraine by illustrating its emblems.

Émile Gallé (b. Nancy, May 4, 1846 - d. Nancy, September 23, 1904) was a renowned French glassmaker, ceramist and cabinetmaker. In the 19th century, he was also a pioneer of the Art Nouveau movement. Gallé was born in Nancy, France, in the home of an earthenware and furniture manufacturer. The designer began learning the art of tin-glazed pottery and cabinetmaking at an early age.
As a young man, Gallé studied drawing, philosophy, botany and, later, glassmaking at Meisenthal.
