Description

      A Villalta Accent Table from the Ernest Hemingway Collection® from Thomasville®.  Free shipping provided.
     The Villalta Accent Table honors Nicanor Villalta, a bullfighter and friend of Ernest Hemingway in the 1920s. Pretty and petite, the table epitomizes both the grace and boldness of the matador. Embossed leather frames the laurel burl top and wraps the rounded sides. With its valiantly reeded and turned pedestal on a triangular base, the stand is all you need to hold your book and cup. One drawer with solid brass lion's head pull.
      Intense and charismatic, Ernest Hemingway reveled in both the simplicities of life and its extremes. A talent for writing and insatiable thirst for adventure drew this twentieth century war correspondent, novelist and avid sportsman to some of the world's most beautiful, exotic action-filled settings. In Paris, Milan, Pamplona, Kenya, Key West and Havana he captured the events of his time in a straightforward writing style that belied the complexities underlying his life and work. Inspired by its namesake, The Ernest Hemingway Collection ® from Thomasville ® marries romantic notions, simple forms and exotic details in an expansive home furnishings collection that honors the many facets of the Nobel Prize-winning author's legendary life.
