This Antique Federal Hepplewhite Game Table, circa 1830, features a striking facade of tiger maple, renowned for its vibrant grain and luminescent quality, while the remainder of the table is crafted from rich mahogany, offering a subtle contrast in textures and hues. This combination not only highlights the table’s elegant silhouette but also showcases the artisanal skill and material sensibility characteristic of the period.
The design adheres to the Hepplewhite style, noted for its graceful, clean lines and balanced proportions. It features tapering legs that have been pegged—a traditional joinery technique that adds both visual interest and structural integrity. Notably, there are stress cracks on the back legs where they were pegged. These have been previously glued, ensuring the table remains stable and functional despite its age.
This game table is devoid of storage drawers, emphasizing its streamlined form and enhancing its use as a gaming surface or an occasional table. It is an exquisite piece for collectors who value furniture that embodies both the beauty of early American craftsmanship and the practical stability needed for contemporary use. Perfect for those who appreciate pieces with a rich history and a story to tell, this table would make a beautiful addition to any home or collection.
