A Regency Mahogany and Boxwood-strung Tripod Table - Early 19th Century

19th century
For Sale by M Cross Antiques
Description

A very elegant Georgian mahogany side table with an octagonal-shaped pivoting height-adjustable top above a spiral-turned support with three splayed legs. Probably a firescreen originally, but more useful in the modern home as a small occasional table.

In lovely condition with a recently restored top. We have noted a couple of historic repairs to the base and one of the legs. Please see images for details.

Overall, a charming, beautifully constructed and useful little table.

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.

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.

Regency tripod tables, produced between roughly 1810 and 1830, are characterized by classical proportions, turned or spiral central pillars, and three sweeping splayed legs. They were designed as versatile accent furniture for serving tea, holding candles, or displaying decorative items.

Craftsmen typically utilised solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, often embellished with fine boxwood or brass stringing. The central stem was turned on a lathe, sometimes featuring spiral fluting, while the tripod legs were joined using dovetail or block construction underneath the column base.

Authentic pieces display signs of hand-carving, original iron brackets or bearer blocks under the tabletop, and natural patination across the wood grain. Shrinkage marks, hand-cut screws, and slight irregularities in the turned column also indicate period manufacture.

These compact pieces function effectively as drink tables next to a sofa or armchair, accent tables in an empty corner, or bedside stands. Their slender proportions allow them to fit easily into smaller modern spaces without overwhelming the layout.

Dust regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish once or twice a year to preserve the timber. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight to prevent veneer movement or fading of the boxwood inlay.
