Pair of mahogany tables in a Neo-Classical antique style, estimated 1910–1920.
Description from the seller
Pair of end tables with hinged lids in wood and gold leather – English Regency style
Elegant pair of bedside/end tables with hinged lids, made of dark brown wood and featuring a superb central top covered with brown leather with a gilt-tooled decoration.
Each table has two lateral lids, allowing the length from 45.5 cm closed to 72.5 cm fully extended.
The lids are also adorned with decorative inserts matching the central panel.
The front features a drawer outlined by a simple frame and equipped with a patinated metal ring handle, a characteristic of furniture inspired by English Regency productions.
The leg/foot assembly is particularly decorative: turned feet in their upper part and fluted in their lower part, joined by a turned stretcher.
The ends display an elegant motif evoking animal paws, reinforcing the neoclassical and Regency inspiration of the piece.
The wood shows a reddish-brown mahogany tone. Based on the photographs, I would describe the construction as mahogany wood and veneer or mahogany-toned wood, rather than asserting “solid mahogany” without direct examination.
The leather tops show a patina and visible signs of use, including color variations and superficial marks, which testify to their use and contribute to the decorative character of the piece.
