Description

A rather unusual 19th century pale mahogany library table with two end drawers, green leather tooled top and stands on turned legs with their original castors.

Lovely size to this writing table so it can work as a sofa table as well as intended as a freestanding library table.

The green leather top with tooling has aged well and has just the right amount of wear and use markings to it. Interesting piece of 19th century English antique furniture.

28 1/2 inches or 72.5 cm high

43 inches or 109 cm wide

26 1/2 inches or 67.5 cm deep

Dealers Notes

I can arrange delivery to you, whether you are within the UK or require an international delivery service, please do get in touch…as a mainland UK guide, a delivery for something around the size of a chest of drawers within approx 150 miles will be £75 to you, but if you if you are in Scotland, Wales, Ireland or Cornwall please get in touch to confirm delivery costs!

Based in Uppingham, Rutland…having been in the business for 25 years focusing on mostly French and English decorative antiques and interiors from the 18th to the early 20th century, hopefully a collection you will enjoy browsing and hopefully re home some of my finds!

Viewing here in Uppingham is very welcome in my spacious barn studio but also I have a showroom based within the Uppingham Antiques Centre, which is well worth a visit and have a good lunch in town too!

Any queries about anything you have seen or about delivery, don't hesitate to get in touch.

FAQs

A 19th-century library table is a substantial writing desk or work table typically featuring a flat surface, often inlaid with leather, designed for use in private libraries, studies, or drawing rooms.

These tables were commonly crafted from solid hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, complemented by gilded or blind-tooled leather writing surfaces and brass castors.

Look for traditional joinery techniques such as hand-cut dovetails, natural age-related wear on turned legs, hand-tooled leather details on the writing inset, and period-appropriate brass castors.

Position the table as a focal point desk in a home office, or place it in a spacious hallway or behind a sofa as a refined decorative work surface.

Clean the timber frame with a soft cloth and apply high-quality beeswax regularly, while preserving the leather insert with specialized leather conditioner to prevent drying or cracking.
