Rare Georgian Edinburgh Table C1820-40

18th century
For Sale by Mews Antiques
Description

This is a Rare Georgian Oak Edinburgh Table c1820-40 in the Gothic Revival Style.

This table was solely designed for the Edinburgh Tenaments. It varies from a traditional Pembroke in a number of ways. Pembrokes have two leaves and legs that dont move. Edinburgh tables have one leaf and have two designs of legs.

The purpose of this table is to sit behind a sofa/ settee. It is designed to be a desk and a dining table. The leg configuration is so designed so you don't have to move it you can just get a chair and you can get properly under the table. Likewise if you had guests you could put the leaf up and entertain or eat your meal. This example is my personal table I have had for some years. A house move means I have no space for it. Its a very practical table, you can work and be with the family at the same time.

There was a wonderful lecture on this table by the Furniture History Society about 15 years ago.

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.

Georgian furniture from the late period and Regency era is defined by classical symmetry, restrained ornamentation, and high-quality cabinetmaking. Pieces often feature straight lines, square or tapered legs, and fine timber veneers such as mahogany.

Cabinetmakers during the Georgian period predominantly utilised solid Cuban or West Indian mahogany for structural elements and table tops. Secondary timbers such as pine or oak were typically used for internal drawer linings and structural framing.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-sawn timber marks, hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers or aprons, and natural shrinkage across wood grain patterns. The timber should also display genuine patination and uneven oxidation consistent with age.

A Georgian side table works well in an entryway, hallway, or living space as a focal accent piece. Pairing the clean architectural silhouette with modern artwork, table lamps, or ceramic vessels creates a balanced mix of traditional and contemporary elements.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year along the wood grain. Avoid placing the table in direct sunlight or near heat sources to prevent timber shrinkage, bleaching, or cracking.
