Satinwood Card Table Circa 1790

18th century
Description

A beautiful satinwood card table circa 1790 with rosewood and boxwood crossbanding and stringing. The back legs fold out to support the table top when open. An unusual feature is that the table has been designed so that when closed there is a half inch overhang at the front which makes it easier to open. The back of the table is also veneered and has ebony stringing - a sure sign of quality.

With the lovely warm colour and grain of the satinwood this is a striking table of the utmost quality.

Height - 74cm / 29"

Width - 92cm / 36.2"

Depth (open) - 90.5cm / 35.5"

Depth (closed) - 46cm / 18"

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.

Satinwood furniture from the late eighteenth century is defined by its golden tone, fine grain, and Neoclassical proportions. Popularised during the Georgian period by designers such as George Hepplewhite and Thomas Sheraton, these pieces featured delicate inlaid crossbanding and geometric forms.

Georgian card tables were constructed with a solid hardwood or softwood core veneered in decorative timbers such as satinwood or mahogany. They feature a hinged fold-over top supported by a swivel leg or gate-leg mechanism, with inner surfaces designed for card play.

Authentic late eighteenth-century card tables exhibit hand-sawn secondary timbers, such as pine or oak, within the interior frame. Original examples display hand-cut joinery, subtle variations in hand-laid veneers, and natural surface oxidation.

A demi-lune table functions effectively as an entryway console or side table against a narrow wall when closed. Placing contemporary ceramic vessels or a modern table lamp on the surface creates a balanced contrast between historic craftsmanship and contemporary interior design.

Keep satinwood furniture away from direct sunlight and central heating radiators to prevent veneer bleaching and timber movement. Regular dusting with a soft cloth and occasional application of neutral beeswax paste will preserve the timber finish.
