This Edwardian mahogany Pembroke table of oval form possesses a warm brown timber colour with contrasting pale satinwood inlays. The drop-leaf top displays four inlaid marquetry trefoil motifs depicting different types of birds positioned centrally on the main section and each leaf. The table stands on straight tapered legs with small spade feet, connected by a shaped frieze. Signs of age include natural fading and grain variation across the polished wooden surfaces. The dimensions measure 75 cm high, 97 cm wide, and 97 cm deep when fully open, with a closed depth of 45 cm. It serves as a practical surface for an English country house interior, functioning well placed at the end of a sofa or as an occasional accent table in a living room.

FAQs

A Pembroke table is a compact drop-leaf table design originating in the 18th century and widely produced during the Edwardian era, featuring hinged leaves supported by folding wooden brackets.

These tables were primarily crafted from mahogany or satinwood, often decorated with delicate timber marquetry inlays and set upon slender, tapered legs.

Authentic period examples feature hand-fitted dovetail joinery on drawers, genuine wood veneer or marquetry inlays rather than printed decals, and subtle wear around the drop-leaf hinges and feet.

Pembroke tables function effectively as side tables, sofa end tables, or compact hall surfaces, offering flexible utility when the side leaves are lowered.

Dust regularly using a dry microfibre cloth, apply a microcrystalline wax or high-grade beeswax sparingly twice per year, and keep the table situated away from direct radiators and sunlight.
