Founders Antiques has dated this Carved Fruitwood Side Table to the Edwardian era.
Miss Gimingham is documented as having run wood-carving workshops at the manor around the turn of the 20th century. The note also refers to an “Egyptian motif” and “El Teb”, neither of which are supported by the table’s European decorative vocabulary.

While this note cannot be independently verified and is not relied upon for formal attribution, it sits comfortably with the table’s hand-carved character, general quality and dating to circa 1900, and adds an intriguing layer of contextual interest to an already distinctive piece.

Very good antique condition with some wear consistent with age, including a discreet, well-executed historic repair to one leg. Structurally sound, clean and ready to place.
English, circa 1900.
