Description:
Here is a fine quality antique English Georgian style mahogany fold over demi-lune shape card table, constructed in the Edwardian period, circa 1900, in good condition. Constructed from mahogany, this table boasts a lovely single-plank mahogany top (sign of quality), finished with a bead carved moulded edge. Below, there is a simple beaded frieze to the front. The table stands on four tapering legs, with spade feet, which feature the original brass and porcelain castors. The rear, central leg can be pulled forth to open an internal drawer. The drawer, which is hand dovetailed and mahogany lined, contains five packs of playing cards and a baize brush. While the drawer is open, it acts as a rest for when the table is unfolded. The card table incorporates a new green baize; therefore the baize is in excellent clean condition.
This table features a lovely warm brown mahogany colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination; this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.
This item would look superb in a variety of rooms from the living room to the hallway. The table would certainly grace any home and is a great investment, as it is extremely functional. So don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.
