Small Regency Mahogany Writing Table

19th century
For Sale by LTANTIQUES.CO.UK
Description

This charming and highly functional small Regency mahogany writing table is constructed from rich, well-figured mahogany, the table features a beautifully polished square top with a mellow, warm patina developed over two centuries. The top conceals a clever and versatile interior, which reveals itself when the hinged lid is opened to display a new hand dyed leather writing surface, making it ideal for use as a compact writing desk or occasional table. The writing surface angle can be adjusted with a wooden ratchet stand underneath.

Beneath the top is a single frieze drawer, fitted with two turned wooden knobs and sectioned inside. The drawer operates smoothly and provides additional storage while maintaining the understated elegance of the piece.

The table is raised on four finely turned legs, a classic Regency feature, each terminating in brass castors, allowing the table to be easily moved. The slender proportions, sophisticated design, and multi-functional top make this table a superb choice for a period interior, whether used as a writing table, side table, or decorative accent.

This writing table is in excellent antique condition, with only minor age-related wear consistent with its history, adding to its authentic charm. A rare and desirable piece, it would make a graceful addition to any collector’s Regency furniture ensemble or an ideal choice for those seeking a tasteful and space-efficient writing solution.

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.
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.
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.

Originating in early 19th-century Britain, Regency writing tables feature classical proportions, mahogany construction, and functional elements such as adjustable ratcheted reading slopes and gilt-tooled leather writing surfaces.

These tables were primarily crafted from solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, combined with gold-tooled leather inserts, brass castors, and turned wood drawer handles.

Authentic Regency pieces display hand-cut dovetail drawer joints, original brass hardware or castors, reeded or ring-turned legs, and natural surface wear consistent with age.

A Regency writing table functions as a compact home office desk, a hallway console, or a flexible side table within a sitting room or library setting.

Dust timber regularly with a soft cloth and apply beeswax along the wood grain, while keeping leather inserts conditioned with specialised leather balsam and away from direct light sources.
