This Georgian occasional table follows a Regency style, constructed with a maple base and a veneered square table top displaying a penwork top border imitating parquetry. The warm brown and black colouration complements the ink, lacquer, and wood materials. A turned pedestal stem supports the top, rising from three splayed tripod legs with curved feet. The border decoration shows fine ink work, while the turned stem includes distinct carved ring details and a bulbous lower section. Practical for placement at the end of a sofa or in a quiet corner as a decorative stand, this compact piece measures 72 cm high, 41 cm wide, and 41 cm deep. The design suits period or traditional interiors seeking a compact display surface for small items.

FAQs

Penwork is a decorative technique popular in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, involving detailed black ink drawings applied onto light-coloured timber or lacquered surfaces.

These tables typically feature solid timber construction such as mahogany, sycamore, or birch, finished with black japan lacquer and india ink detailing.

Authentic pieces display detailed hand-drawn linear patterns, age-appropriate craquelure in the varnish, turned central pedestals, and hand-carved tripod legs with dowel or hand-cut joinery.

Position the piece beside a tailored sofa or within an empty corner to highlight its decorative surface and silhouette without overcrowding the surrounding area.

Keep the surface away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, dusting gently with a soft dry microfibre cloth and avoiding liquid chemical cleaners.
