The Antique Furniture Company

Description

A rare Regency period burr yew and inlaid drop-leaf work table dating to c.1820. This attractive table has tulipwood crossbanding to the top and a U-shaped cradle support on a rectangular tapering column with a beaded platform base raised on four hipped out curved legs with brass paw feet and castors. With a frieze drawer above the pull-out sewing or storage basket, the basket is constructed from timber with a fabric cover to the outside.

Lovely condition for age, there is a lock and key, the lock is not working but it may be possible for our locksmith to repair it, and there is a label to the inside for a historic repair to a leg join (in 1906). The yellow fabric covering the basket is worn appears to only be pinned at the corners and should be easily replaced to suit the decor of its next home.

Overall dimensions (approx)
55.5cm wide closed x 41cm deep x 73.5cm high
(21 7/8in wide closed x 16 1/4in deep x 29in high)
