Gillows Regency Mahogany Inlaid Sidetable

19th century
Sold 2 May 2025 · W.R. Harvey & Co. (Antiques) Ltd
This “Gillows Regency Mahogany Inlaid Sidetable” found a buyer.

It was listed by W.R. Harvey & Co. (Antiques) Ltd. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

A Regency mahogany carved and inlaid sideboard the shaped and inverted top outlined with stringing over a central concave frieze drawer and a sliding tambour door, flanked by conforming convex drawers, applied with gilt metal wreath ring handles and punctuated by reeded pillars with leaf carved capitals extending to the four front ring turned, reeded legs and tulip feet, with two conforming rear legs.

Circa 1810

Price: £ 10,000-00p.

Height: 37.5”, 95 cms / Width: 78.5”, 199 cms / Depth: 29.5”, 75 cms.

Note: The attribution to the illustrious firm of Gillows is based on many years handling stamped pieces and known Gillows examples where there are a number of recurring aspects both of manufacture and design. The reeded leg which we see here is often referred to as a “Gillows Leg” and in the literature set out below, there are numerous examples of this.

The tower or turret corners or columns is another feature of theirs. The quality and vibrance of timbers used is typical of their work and the very careful selection of the finest veneers available endorses the attribution.

The Regency style flourished in Britain during the early 19th century, marked by a strong influence from classical Greek, Roman, and Egyptian designs, characterised by clean lines, classical proportions, and sophisticated cabinet-making techniques.

Cabinet-makers of this period predominantly used dense tropical hardwoods like Cuban or Honduras mahogany, often enhanced with contrasting veneers such as satinwood or rosewood, alongside hand-cast brass hardware and fine stringing inlay.

Authentic pieces typically exhibit period-appropriate construction methods such as hand-cut dovetail joints in the drawer construction, old secondary timbers like oak or pine inside, and natural patination consistent with age and traditional wax polishing.

Integrating a period wooden sideboard into a modern scheme works best when contrasted with minimalist walls and contemporary art, using the surface to display balanced items like modern ceramics or polished metal candlesticks.

To preserve the finish, keep the wood out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources to prevent splitting, and maintain the lustre by applying a traditional beeswax polish every few months while avoiding silicone-based commercial sprays.
