Description

A Victorian amboyna and ebonised card table in the Aesthetic Movement style, circa 1870–1890, raised on castors. The hinged top, with a floral-patterned impressed ebony border and brass moulded edge, revolves to unfold on its base and reveal a blue velvet playing surface. The feet are joined by a turned stretcher and finished with inlay, with brass mouldings throughout the piece.

The Aesthetic Movement (circa 1860–1900) emphasised beauty and refined design over purely functional form, often incorporating exotic woods, bold contrasts, and intricate decorative motifs.

A fine example of its type, this table is ideal for games evenings with friends or family, folding neatly away when not in use and serving equally well as an occasional table.

The Aesthetic Movement emerged in the late 19th century, promoting art for arts sake with a focus on refined craftsmanship, contrasting ebonised finishes, and exotic wood veneers like amboyna, often drawing inspiration from Japanese design.

These pieces typically feature a dense secondary timber treated with an ebonised finish to mimic Japanese lacquer, paired with highly figured exotic veneers such as amboyna, and embellished with brass stringing or inlay.

Authentication involves examining the hand-cut dovetails, the depth and oxidation of the ebonisation, traditional hand-applied French polish, and the quality of the brass inlay work characteristic of late 19th-century cabinetmaking.

An antique games table serves as a striking focal point against neutral walls, functioning well as a console or occasional surface in a living room, where its rich wood tones and historic craftsmanship provide textural contrast.

Maintain antique wooden surfaces by keeping them away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent veneer cracking, dusting with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying a specialist microcrystalline wax.
