Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1890s:
Fine line inlay and crossbanded edges: cabinet work of the late Victorian revival.
Pierced brass gallery along the superstructure: late-nineteenth-century decorative metalwork.
Mahogany drawer linings with neat dovetails: high-grade late Victorian cabinet construction.
Square tapered legs on spade feet with brass castors: typical late-nineteenth-century design.
Mellowed surface and gentle rubbing to the handles: honest wear from domestic use.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This Sheraton Revival writing table dates from 1890 and is fashioned from rich mahogany with satinwood string inlay. The piece stands on square tapered legs terminating in spade feet with brass castors, supporting a superstructure equipped with two small drawers beneath a pierced brass gallery rail. Below this, the main desk body incorporates two mahogany-lined frieze drawers fitted with brass swan-neck drop handles, framing a dark leather writing surface decorated with hand-applied gilt and blind tooling. The table measures 84 cm high, 91 cm wide, and 52 cm deep overall. Positioned in a study or home office, this writing table offers a functional workspace for correspondence or laptop use while bringing traditional English country house character to the interior. The compact proportions allow placement against a wall or freestanding in a reception room, providing accessible surface space and drawer storage for stationery and everyday essentials.

FAQs

Sheraton Revival furniture, popular from the late 19th to early 20th century, reinterprets 18th-century designs by Thomas Sheraton. It is characteristically lightweight and elegant, featuring straight tapered legs, geometric wood inlays, stringing, and balanced neoclassical proportions.

These tables are primarily constructed from fine timbers such as mahogany or satinwood. Key decorative accents include boxwood or ebony inlay, cast brass handles, brass gallery rails, and inset leather writing surfaces.

Authentic pieces exhibit refined cabinetmaking techniques such as fine dovetail drawer joinery, slender square tapered legs ending in spades or castors, precise marquetry or satinwood stringing, and period-appropriate cast brass fittings.

Position the desk near a window or within a living room alcove to create a compact workspace. Pairing the piece with a clean-lined modern chair or a traditional leather armchair creates a sophisticated contrast in contemporary homes.

Keep the timber away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent drying or fading. Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth, apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually along the wood grain, and clean the leather surface with specialised leather conditioner.
