Regency Period Amboyna & Ebony Tilt Top Table

19th century
Description

A remarkable and beautifully drawn Regency period oval centre table in the manner George Bullock. The exceptionally worked, and unusually thin one piece amboyna tilt-top decorated with ebony cross banding and a central medallion of ebony and amboyna, the whole supported on a hexagonal tapering stem terminating in an architecturally designed tripod of outswept sabre legs on original and very unusual brass castors in the form of paw feet. The stem with further decorative panels consisting of a brass inlaid foliate design on an ebony ground, the stem and legs similarly strung in ebony.

This table displays all of the hallmarks associated with the very best craftsmanship and design synonymous with the High Regency period. It closely features many of the elements used by George Bullock during this time. The delicate use of ebony, brass and amboyna are generally associated with his work. The attention given to the elegant proportion and line is clearly executed by a master of cabinet work and design.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Regency period tilt-top tables, dating from the early 19th century, feature clean neoclassical silhouettes, turned central pedestals, and splayed tripod legs. They incorporate space-saving snap-latch mechanisms allowing the top to pivot vertically when placed against a wall.

Cabinetmakers during the Regency era frequently utilised exotic timbers such as amboyna, mahogany, and rosewood. Decorative accents included contrasting ebony stringing or borders, alongside brass hardware such as lion paw castors and metal catch mechanisms.

Authentic pieces display hand-cut wood veneers, original iron or brass catch mechanisms beneath the tabletop, and period-appropriate castors. Hand-turned pedestal bases and signs of natural oxidisation on the timber underside also indicate period construction.

The table can function as an occasional side table or lamp stand. When not in active use, the top can be tilted upright to display the wood grain as a vertical decorative backdrop in a room corner or entryway.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth. Apply a high-grade beeswax polish occasionally following the grain, and position the piece away from direct sunlight and artificial heat sources to prevent veneer lifting or drying.
