Description from the seller
Regency / William IV Folding Table in Mahogany with Dark Inlay, Early 19th Century - On Casters
A refined folding table in the Regency/William IV style from the early 19th century is offered at auction. This piece epitomizes the understated elegance and functional British design of the period.
The table is crafted from high-quality mahogany, with a highly polished flame veneer on the folding D-shaped top. The surface is adorned with a slim dark perimeter inlay (likely ebony or faux ebony), which also runs along the edges of the frieze and the drawer.
Key Features:
Folding Top: The top folds in half, converting a smaller gaming/serving table into a larger dining table.
Gate-Leg Mechanism: It has a hinged rear leg (gate-leg style) that unfolds to provide solid support for the extended top.
Drawer: The frieze features a functional drawer with two elegant aged-brass drop knobs and a matching brass keyhole escutcheon.
Legs: Four tapered, square legs, decorated with dark inlays and topped with original brass casters.
Shape: D-shaped rounded edges.
Conditions:
The item is in good vintage condition with signs of use consistent with age (over 200 years).
The top shows some surface scratches and small marks.
There are more specific wear marks, including a pronounced dent and an area of discoloration/veneer wear near the hinged edge.
The brass hinges are functional but show a patina and accumulated grime.
The drawer slides well. The casters are intact and functional.
Please carefully review the macro photos provided, which show in detail the condition and flaws. The table has an authentic patina and has not undergone heavy restoration.
Use:
Perfect as a gaming table, tea table, dining table for compact spaces, or as an accent piece in a hallway or living room.
Origin: Italian private collection.
