Antique George III Inlaid Mahogany Demi-lune Fold-over Tea Table C.1790

18th century
Sold 8 December 2025 · Founders Antiques
This “Antique George III Inlaid Mahogany Demi-lune Fold-over Tea Table C.1790” found a buyer.

It was listed by Founders Antiques. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

A handsome George III inlaid mahogany tea table of demi-lune form. The hinged top is veneered in well-figured mahogany with a satinwood crossband and twin chequer stringing in boxwood and ebony, opening to reveal a polished mahogany surface edged with a chequer-inlaid border. The frieze is similarly detailed, with outlined panels above square tapered legs inlaid with boxwood lines.

The craftsmanship and balance of proportion reflect the refined neoclassical influence of the Hepplewhite period and the piece is typical of well-executed late 18th-century work. Designed to sit neatly against a wall and when required, open into a full circular tea table. Its compact scale makes it an ideal piece for a hallway or living space.

Presented in very good antique condition with a rich aged patina and light surface wear. One front leg is a little bowed inwards, there are some historic veneer repairs in places and an old repair to one rear leg now stable. Structurally sound, clean and ready to place in the home.

English, circa 1790.

A George III demi-lune tea table is a half-moon shaped folding table produced during the reign of King George III, typically featuring a hinged top that opens to reveal a surface used for serving tea or playing card games.

These tables were primarily constructed from solid mahogany and pine secondary woods, embellished with decorative satinwood stringing, boxwood veneers, and hand-cut dovetail joints.

Authenticity is identified through period-appropriate hand-cut joinery, timber shrinkage patterns, oxidised natural patination, and traditional hand-applied polish rather than modern chemical finishes.

An antique folding table can be positioned flush against a hallway or living room wall as a console, paired with a modern mirror or contemporary lamp to create a contrasting focal point.

Preserve antique mahogany by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources, dusting regularly with a dry cloth, and occasionally applying pure beeswax to nourish the timber.
