The table has a superb rich patina and colour and is in good condition, the edges of the fold over top are decorated with turned-split bobbin or bead mouldings, which continues further down the table in various different designs. The top turns to reveal a games well, where you can keep your card games, the top then folds over to reveal the green felt inset which is in good order with only a few minor blemishes. The base has broad splayed legs decorated with carved foliate scrolls , these support the central column which is almost designed around the base and mid section of an obelisk.

FAQs

A William IV rosewood card table is a piece of furniture crafted during the 1830s, designed with a swivel fold-over top that reveals a baize playing surface. These tables typically feature a central pedestal, quadform base, and carved architectural details characteristic of the era between the Regency and Victorian periods.

Card tables from this period were predominantly constructed using dense native oak or pine carcasses covered in high-quality rosewood or mahogany veneers. The interior playing surface was typically lined with woven wool baize, while internal hinges and swivel mechanisms were made of solid brass.

Authentic period tables exhibit fine joinery such as hand-cut dovetails inside hidden storage compartments, high-grade rosewood grain patterns, and precision-turned bead mouldings. Pieces associated with makers like Gillows often feature specific stamped markings, numbered drawer linings, or distinctive carved leg profiles.

When closed, a fold-over card table serves as an elegant console table against a wall or behind a sofa. It can be accessorised with contemporary ceramics or lamps, and then opened to reveal its green baize surface when required for social gatherings.

Keep the wood surface clean using a soft microfiber cloth and apply a high-grade beeswax polish sparingly along the grain to preserve the timber finish. Protect the interior baize from direct moisture and bright sunlight, cleaning the fabric gently with a soft brush.
