RARE DIMINUTIVE GEORGE III ROSEWOOD AND SATINWOOD-INLAID OVULAR PEMBROKE TABLE OF THE SHERATON PERIOD
England, circa 1795
Item # 403LRB02A … more RARE DIMINUTIVE GEORGE III ROSEWOOD AND SATINWOOD-INLAID OVULAR PEMBROKE TABLE OF THE SHERATON PERIOD
England, circa 1795
Item # 403LRB02A
A fine and rare George III drop-leaf pembroke table of the Sheraton Period, this example is characterized by being unusually diminutive and leggy. Executed with rosewood veneers accentuated by satinwood inlays, it features an ovular form when the leaves are raised and wings withdrawn to support them. A single drawer is situated in the apron with an original stamped brass knob and key, the opposite side a faux drawer with an inoperable keyhole and no knob. The table has not been available on the market since it was acquired by an antique dealer in the United States from the firm of Richard Courtney Limited in London in 1999 for $ 6,800 USD (original sale invoice included with the table for provenance records). Raised on tapered legs terminating in squared brass castors. An exceedingly elegant example that views well from every angle.
Measurements: 28 1/2" H x 17 1/8" D x 23 7/8" W
