Elegant Antique Mahogany Canterbury Side Table with Drawer & Magazine Rack

1900 - 1920
Description

Beautiful antique mahogany Canterbury side table dating from the Edwardian period.

An elegant and beautifully proportioned piece, featuring a single drawer with decorative brass handles and brass roundels, together with a gracefully curved magazine rack beneath. The combination of clean lines, warm mahogany tones and refined craftsmanship gives this table a timeless appearance that complements both traditional and modern interiors.

The generously sized drawer provides practical storage for everyday items, while the lower curved magazine rack is perfect for newspapers, magazines or books. Raised on elegant shaped supports with turned feet, the table has a light, sophisticated appearance while remaining practical for everyday use.

This is a versatile piece that would work equally well as a side table, lamp table, occasional table or hallway piece, adding warmth and character to any home.

Professionally cleaned and traditionally hand-waxed in our workshop, it is presented in beautiful showroom condition and is ready to be enjoyed immediately.

A wonderful quality antique piece that is both decorative and practical.

Condition

Presented in excellent antique condition.

The table has been thoroughly inspected in our workshop and is structurally sound with no loose joints. It retains a beautiful rich colour and has been professionally cleaned before receiving a fresh traditional wax finish.

There are only very minor age-related signs of use, entirely consistent with an antique piece of this age. Overall, it is presented in beautiful showroom condition and is ready to be placed straight into the home.

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

This Edwardian Canterbury side table in the Regency Revival style is fashioned from mahogany with a rich brown colour finish. The rectangular top sits above a single shallow drawer fitted with small brass knobs, flanked by brass roundels on the sides. Below, a curved magazine trough rests between shaped vertical supports that extend down to turned finials on the feet. The table measures 70 cm high, 50 cm wide, and 33 cm deep, offering compact proportions for an interior. Positioned at the end of a sofa, beside an armchair, or in a hallway, this piece serves as a practical surface for a lamp or small items while holding newspapers or books in the lower rack. The clean lines and traditional hand-waxed shine suit both traditional and modern rooms, bringing warmth and utility to a living space, study, or bedroom without taking up excessive floor area.

FAQs

Originally designed in the late 18th century to hold music scores, a Canterbury evolved during the 19th century into a functional occasional table featuring divisions or a lower trough specifically intended for newspapers, periodicals, and books.

Traditional examples were constructed using dense hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or walnut, featuring dovetail drawer joints, turned spindles, and solid brass fittings or castors for stability and ease of movement.

Authentic pieces generally show hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, genuine wear on original brass fittings, and natural patination across secondary timbers such as pine or oak on internal linings and undersides.

Position the piece adjacent to an armchair or sofa to function as a compact drinks rest while utilising the lower trough section to hold coffee table books or magazines.

Maintain the finish by dusting with a lint-free cloth and applying a small amount of beeswax polish annually, keeping the table away from direct sunlight and radiators to avoid shrinking or fading.
