19th century
For Sale by M Lees and Sons
Description

Elegant early C19th Regency period octagonal brass-mounted rosewood tripod base table with chequer-board games top.

Smart Regency rosewood games table of octagonal design, standing on inverted shaped tripod supports. The facetted column with brass fluted panels onto a circular central boss , the ‘hips’ of the legs with brass-mounted caps . The base and legs with ebony stringing detail.

The octagonal rosewood top with a broad cross-banded edge with ebony stringing , the centre inlaid with a precisely-defined chequer or chess-board games top . The squares of the top unusually being of alternating inlay of rosewood and oak .

The form and design of this echoing the style of Louis Le Gaigneur of London , the French emigré cabinet-maker associated with this type of brass-mounted furniture during this period. The undoubtedly French design influence , combined with the use of English oak in the top , pointing to the association.

In excellent original condition, with a pleasing mellow colour and patina.

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Originating in early nineteenth-century Britain, Regency games tables were designed for social parlours and drawing rooms. They frequently feature tripod or pedestal bases, classical brass fittings, and tops inlaid with chequerboard or backgammon surfaces.

Craftsmen during the Regency era favoured dense exotic timbers such as rosewood and mahogany. These were often combined with stringing in contrast woods, brass mouldings, and hand-cut marquetry or parquetry inlays.

Authentic pieces exhibit early nineteenth-century construction details, including hand-cut dovetails, original brass mounts with natural age patina, and hand-veneered wood surfaces showing subtle variations in texture.

A games table functions well as an occasional side table in a living room, an accent piece in a bay window, or placed in a quiet reading corner alongside an armchair.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent veneer lifting or warping. Polish the timber periodically with natural beeswax, and wipe brass fittings clean with a soft dry cloth without using harsh chemical polishes.
