Dating to the late 19th century, but in the Georgian style as is common for this period these tables are very good quality and extremely useful indeed.

The top of each table is contsructed from well figured, rich mahogany timber with elegant cross banded decoration. The combination of these features creates a good contrast and an elegant look in combination with the cockbeaded panelling.

These tables are in good, solid, functional condition, with very little restoration or existing damage to speak of. It is worth noting that we have had many similar nests of this period and it’s not that often that they are found without rudimentary repairs to smashed legs, or with tops that have faded to totally different colour, split, or just generally look different. Its therefore clear that this particular nest has been well loved, cherished and used throughout its life. The only thing worth mentioning, which can be clearly seen on the images supplied, is that there is a historic dig out of the cockbeading of the top table which is of course all a part of their history!

As with all items which we offer for sale they have been attended to in our workshops by our highly skilled antique furniture restorers who have tightened the joints, cleaned and naturally waxed them to ensure they are presented in retail condition ready to be placed straight into use.

Perfect for a whole variety of spaces around the home they will add a touch of elegance, class and function to absolutely any room around the home.
