Description

This is a superb Regency tilt-top coromandel cross-banded flame mahogany breakfast table on a turned pedestal base, c.1820.

The top is made from a single slice of mahogany with a 2 inch border of stunning coromandel veneers and a reeded edge. It sits on a gun barrel turned column with three reeded splayed legs ending in brass castors.

Dimensions:
Width 108 cm (42 1/2")
Depth 78 cm (30 1/2")
Height 71.5 cm (28 1/4")

Condition: The table is in excellent condition with a few marks commensurate with its age. The top has been re-French polished in our workshop whereas the base has simply received a wax and buff. There is a professional repair in the centre of the knot on the top which is believed to date from its original manufacture as the centre of knots are notoriously difficult to saw. There is a professional repair to one of the legs which probably dates from the 19th Century. The brass catch and castors all appear to be original.
