French Provincial furniture, also known as French country decor, emerged in the 17th and 18th Centuries as rural craftspeople in the French provinces adapted the elegant, ornate furnishings of the Parisian royal courts to suit a more relaxed, rustic lifestyle. Built to last and often using significantly less ornamentation than their Parisian counterparts, they were traditionally crafted from locally sourced sturdy woods like oak, walnut, cherry, and mahogany, with their most recognizable features being cabriole legs and scalloped edges over neutral paints and stains.
Small hole in the leather top.
