Styles and construction of French Country Furniture were very regional. As you can see today in examples of French provincial antique tables, they have remained unchanged and simple in design for centuries. Some have included bread slides, extension leaves, large drawers to replace dough tables. H-stretchers and end stretcher bases were added for stability. Thick chunky legs with canted corners, delicate tapering or cabriole legs are all incorporated into their designs.
Many of the antique tables found today were made for outside use. Wine tasting tables and Harvest tables were taken to the fields outside the French farmhouse where the workers would sit on French benches or sets of ladder back chairs, some with cabriole legs, to eat their lunch.
Many of these old French tables were made so well and with such quality that they have gone onto survive through the generations to become Antique Tables today.
