George II Cuban Mahogany Small Drop-leaf Gateleg Table – (Georgian, Mid 18th Century, Pad Foot, Occasional / Dining Table Circa 1740 )

A fine and early George II period Cuban mahogany drop-leaf gateleg table, dating to circa 1740. The well-figured mahogany top is of near square form, constructed from three heavy planks of beautifully grained early timber. Each end leaf is supported by a single gateleg, giving the table both practicality and elegance. The plain frieze is raised on tapering turned legs, ending in offset pad feet – a hallmark of the period.

Compact and versatile, this piece works equally well as a small dining table, occasional table, or side table. Its restrained Georgian form, fine timber, and lovely proportions make it an excellent and highly decorative early 18th-century example.
