Pair of 19th Century English Regency Rosewood Card Tables

19th century
Description

Pair of 19th Century English Regency Rosewood Card Tables (Attributed to Gillows)

An Excellent Pair of 19th Century English Regency Rosewood Card Tables, Probably by Gillows.

These lovely tables are veneered in high quality rosewood and of D shape with their rounded corners. They stand on four turned legs with toupie toes and open with a double gateleg action, a good sign of quality. The friezes of the tables are inlaid with brass, the width of the stringing being particularly bold and contrasting beautifully with the patinated rosewood veneers. The tables are entirely typical of the high quality pieces produced by Gillows in the regency period and the timber is of the finest quality, a notable feature of all Gillows output as they had begun to import their own woods by this stage. The reeded and turned legs are a Gillows staple and are a key part of the attribution.

FAQs

Regency card tables were produced in Britain during the early 19th century, characterized by Neoclassical lines, symmetrical proportions, and decorative wood veneers. Designed to fold shut into narrow console tables when not in use for gaming, they feature swivel or hinged tops.

These tables were typically constructed from solid timber frames veneered in dark woods such as rosewood or mahogany. Decorative elements often included brass stringing, ebony inlays, fluted or turned legs, and baize-lined interior playing surfaces.

Authentic pieces generally exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, original brass hinges, period-accurate timber graining, and evidence of hand-tooling on underside frameworks. The presence of natural timber shrinkage lines or aged patination on metal mounts also helps verify period authenticity.

A pair of card tables works exceptionally well placed symmetrically against a focal wall, flanking a doorway, or positioned in alcoves. When folded closed, their slim profiles allow them to serve as elegant console tables beneath framed artwork or mirrors.

Dust surfaces regularly with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and avoid placing pieces in direct sunlight or near heat sources to prevent timber movement. Apply a high-quality beeswax polish sparingly once or twice a year, buffing gently along the grain.
