Antique Georgian Mahogany Octagonal Sheraton Urn Stand C.1780

18th century
Description

A fine George III mahogany urn stand, the octagonal top with a shallow gallery enclosing radiating marquetry of rosewood, mahogany and satinwood, set over a frieze inlaid with neoclassical swags and housing a pull-out slide. The piece is raised on four square tapered legs inlaid with satinwood panels with cast brass collars, united by a lower cross-stretcher and raised on original brass ball feet.

Dating from the height of the late 18th-century English tea ritual, and reflecting the neoclassical elegance of the Sheraton period, its exceptionally slender proportions and remarkably compact footprint allow the piece to function seamlessly today as an elegant lamp, wine or display table within a formal drawing room or library.

The underside retains a W.F. Greenwood & Sons trade plaque from their prestigious York showrooms, dating to circa 1900.

Very good antique condition with some surface wear consistent with age. Structurally sound with a fully operational slide, clean and ready to place.

English, circa 1780.

FAQs

A Georgian Sheraton urn stand is a small, tall accent table designed during the late 18th century, named after designer Thomas Sheraton. Typically made from mahogany or satinwood, these stands were intended to hold hot tea urns and often included a retractable slide for resting teacups.

18th-century urn stands were predominantly constructed using solid and veneered mahogany, frequently decorated with satinwood inlay or marquetry. Common construction methods include hand-cut dovetail joints on the pull-out slide, square tapered legs, and cross-stretchers added for structural stability.

Authentic Georgian pieces exhibit hand-saw marks on secondary woods, hand-forged iron or brass hardware, natural timber shrinkage over time, and light patina on original surfaces. Features like octagonal tops, delicate marquetry, and integrated tea slides are characteristic of late 18th-century craftsmanship.

An antique urn stand functions well as a decorative plant stand, a small side table beside an armchair, or an accent piece in a narrow hallway or alcove. Its slender proportions allow it to add historical character without overwhelming compact room layouts.

Mahogany furniture should be kept away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent wood shrinkage and veneer lifting. Dusting with a soft, dry cloth and applying a high-quality natural beeswax polish once or twice a year protects the original patina.
