19th Century Regency Mahogany Sofa Table

19th century
Description

A Good Quality, Early 19th Century, Regency Period Mahogany Sofa Table, Having Well Figured Rectangular Drop Flap Top With Ebonised Inlay Decoration, Over Two Frieze Drawers Opposed By Two False Drawers To Reverse, With Replacement Brass Handles, Raised On Elegant Tablet End Supports With Umbrella Splayed Legs And Original Brass Castors.

Sofa Tables were relatively common throughout the 18th and 19th centuries and as the name suggests they were originally designed to sit behind a sofa, although a common misconception is that they were meant to butt right up against the sofa itself.

Actually they were normally designed to sit a few feet away from the sofa, hence the false drawers on reverse. That said they also look quite happy pushed right up against the back of a sofa and are such useful, versatile items of furniture.

This example is of relatively typical design, constructed with good solid mahogany timbers and has the usual two drawers to front, two false drawers to reverse and two folding flap design, which allows for great versatility in terms of how much surface area one wished to utilise.

As with all of our items this Mahogany Sofa Table has been attended to in the traditional manner at our workshops before being offered for sale, by our highly trained and skilled antique furniture restorers including a light clean and natural wax polish to ensure that it is in retail condition and ready to be placed immediately into the home or workplace.

Circa 1810.

Height 28in.

Width 35in (flaps down).

Width 60in (flaps up).

Depth 26in.

Declaration

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

A Regency sofa table typically features a narrow rectangular top with hinged drop leaves at each short end, twin frieze drawers, and end supports linked by a central turned stretcher. Originating in the early 19th century, they were designed to sit behind a sofa to hold reading materials and writing implements.

High-quality hardwoods such as flame mahogany, rosewood, and zebrawood were commonly utilised, often decorated with ebony or boxwood stringing, brass lion-mask or octagonal drawer pulls, and brass capped castors.

Authentic Regency examples exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints on frieze drawers, original brass castors, ebony or satinwood crossbanding, and natural wear or oxidisation beneath the tabletop and inside the drawer linings.

A sofa table can be positioned directly behind a free-standing sofa, used as a hallway console table, or placed beneath a window to host decorative ceramics and task lighting while maintaining a slim footprint.

Keep mahogany furniture away from direct sunlight and central heating sources to prevent wood shrinkage or bleaching. Clean surfaces gently with a soft microfibre cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax paste annually to nourish the wood finish.
