Antique Quality George III Mahogany Inlaid Card Table

A superb and highly refined George III mahogany fold-over card table distinguished by its beautifully figured top framed with finely executed satinwood crossbanding and delicate ebony stringing. The craftsmanship is elegant and restrained, with a rich, well-preserved patina that speaks to the quality of the timber and the care it has received throughout its life. The fold-over top opens smoothly to reveal the original-style baize gaming surface supported by a robust rear gate leg when extended. The table stands on four exceptionally elegant turned legs with ring turning and tapering profiles—an unmistakable hallmark of late Georgian design. This is a particularly graceful and versatile Georgian example, ideal as a card table, lamp table, or statement console. Its proportions, colour and surface quality place it firmly in the premium category of Georgian occasional furniture. Date: 1800 Origin: English
