We love this pic (left)! Alexander is selling his Louis XVI style side table which he bought in London last year and is in mint condition. As he says, "It's perfect for either a shabby-chic environment, or then someone who loves Louis XVI style furniture." We say PAINT IT BLACK and make it even bolder.
Meanwhile, Eric's Jonathan Adler Green Lacquer Side Table is still for sale for $700. We would bargain him down and get this off his hands asap.
The Louis XVI side table is adorable with lots of charm! I think the table would wonderful Lacquered in almost any color. Great find!

Not to be a pain, but the small white side table is in the Louis XV not XVI style. A Louis XVI side table would look more like this - http://www.french-antique-furniture.com/Pictures%20from%20April%205%202007/Louis%20XVI%20style%20painted%20side%20table,%20black%20marble%20top%201704x2272.jpg.
This concludes today's 18th century French furniture class. LOL.

Just noticed that the link I included above doesn't work. Corrected link below. I know you're all dying to see what a Louis XVI side table really looks like.
