This close pair of occasional tables follows a design by E W Godwin from the Aesthetic Movement of 1880. Each piece is constructed from mahogany with a warm brown timber colour and features a distinct rectangular top. The tables display an intricate pierced fretwork frieze beneath the top surface, complemented by extended scroll handles on either side. Below, the furniture incorporates asymmetric tiered shelves supported by slender square tapering legs, creating a staggered arrangement of surfaces. Visible details include open geometric fretwork patterns and polished dark wood grain throughout the construction. These occasional tables measure 75 cm high by 70 cm wide by 40 cm deep, providing compact display space for domestic settings. In a modern home, they work well placed at the end of a sofa in a living room, or as decorative side tables in a study or hallway to hold lamps, books, or ornaments. Their distinctive Anglo-Japanese Victorian and Gothic styling adds character and practical surface area to traditional or contemporary interiors.

FAQs

Anglo-Japanese furniture arose during the late nineteenth century Aesthetic Movement, incorporating simplified rectilinear forms, asymmetrical shelf configurations, and geometric decorative frets inspired by traditional Japanese woodwork and architectural screens.

These pieces were typically crafted from solid mahogany or ebonised timber, featuring mortise and tenon joinery, hand-carved or pierced frieze panels, and slender square-section legs supported by secondary lower shelving.

Authentic pieces inspired by architect Edward William Godwin exhibit precise proportioning, minimalist profiles, light framing, pierced wave or latticework friezes, and side handles or extended rails.

Their architectural framework and warm wood tones allow them to function well as sofa end tables, bedside stands, or accent pieces in contemporary living rooms, ideal for displaying modern art glass or ceramics.

Dust regularly using a soft natural-bristle brush around the pierced fretwork to avoid catching fibers, wipe wood surfaces with a dry microfibre cloth, and apply a high-grade beeswax polish annually.
