Georgian 18th Century Hepplewhite Baby Pembroke Table

19th century
Description

A Very Good Quality Late 18th Century, Georgian Hepplewhite Period, Mahogany Baby Pembroke Table, Having Well Figured Butterly Shaped Drop Flap Top, With Attractive Crossbanded Decoration, Over One Frieze Drawer To Front And One False Drawer To Reverse, Retaining Original Brass Axe Drop Handles, Raised On Elegant Square Tapered Legs With Original Brass Castors.

Pembroke tables in their full size form quickly became one of the most popular pieces of furniture around the homes of the mid 18th century onwards, mainly due to their huge versatility and the plethora of different spaces which they can be situated in. In fact George Hepplewhite himself described pembroke tables as the most useful of tables and there are many references to them in 18th and 19th century literature, with Jane Austen herself even describing them being used in various different ways.

It is absolutely certain that they are just as incredibly versatile for use in todays world as they were in 18th century England. The ability of being able to use the two flaps to create significant variation in the size of the table top is very much a popular feature.

This form of table is actually referred to as a “Baby Pembroke” table and this is due to the fact that its smaller in proportion than its full size siblings. The smaller varieties are even more useful than their full size counterparts and can be used pretty much anywhere that one desires around the home.

This table is really lovely quality, constructed from extremely good quality mahogany timbers and boasts incredible elegance. It is also slightly earlier in date than many of the smaller varieties which we see and the butterly shaped top is a really elegant feature.

As with all items which we offer for sale this baby pembroke table has been attended to in our workshops by our highly skilled, trained antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish before being offered for sale.

Circa 1780.

Height 27.5in.

Width 14in. (flaps down).

Width 29in. (flaps up).

Depth 27in.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Named after designer George Hepplewhite, these tables feature two hinged drop leaves, slender tapered square legs, and boxwood inlay, introduced as versatile accent tables in the late 18th century.

Primary timbers include solid mahogany or satinwood, often detailed with marquetry, supported on brass castors and fitted with period brass drop handles.

Authentic Georgian examples exhibit hand-dovetailed drawer joints, hand-planed oak drawer linings, period brass hardware, and age-consistent surface patination.

Compact dimensions and collapsible side leaves allow these tables to function as sofa side tables, bedside tables, or occasional accent surfaces in contemporary rooms.

Dust regularly using a dry microfibre cloth, apply a thin coat of beeswax annually following the wood grain, and avoid exposure to direct heat or moisture.
