This George IV oval rosewood breakfast table dates from the 19th century and is finished in a dark brown timber. The top is in finely figured rosewood with a carved gadrooned edge, a simple frieze with beading beneath, and opens on the length, held in place by a double brass clasp and brass pins. It rests on a rosewood veneered block, supported on a twisted stem with beadings on the facings. The base is a quadripartite scrolled structure featuring four profusely carved feet with foliate carving on the knees, ending in hairy paw feet with concealed brass castors. The table measures 73 cm high, 141 cm wide, and 115 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this piece suits a grand dining room or a spacious reception area as a central dining table or breakfast table. The classic George IV styling and rich rosewood timber bring character to traditional and period interiors. The practical dimensions provide generous surface space for daily dining or entertaining guests while allowing comfortable clearance around the pedestal base for seating.

FAQs

A George IV breakfast table is a circular or oval table produced during the 1820s, typically featuring a central pedestal base and often equipped with a tilt-top mechanism for versatile positioning.

Tables from this period were predominantly crafted from high-grade dense woods such as Brazilian rosewood or mahogany, incorporating carved central columns, brass snap-latches, and castors.

Authentic pieces feature period-correct joinery, original brass tilt-top latches, natural grain oxidation under the tabletop, and period hand-carving techniques on the pedestal and legs.

Place the table as a central focal point in a dining room, entrance hall, or large bay window, pairing it with contemporary chairs or subtle period seating to balance classic and modern aesthetics.

Maintain the surface by dusting with a soft microfibre cloth, applying a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly, and positioning the piece away from direct heat sources and sunlight.
