Collectable Interiors has dated this Regency Rosewood Breakfast Table to the 19th Century.
An extraordinarily fine statement piece of early 19th-century British cabinetmaking, this Regency period rosewood tilt-top breakfast table represents the absolute pinnacle of high-period design, timber selection, and carving.
Key Features & Highlights
The central support column features deep, crisp lotus leaf acanthus carving above a hand-carved egg-and-dart collar. The concaved quadform plinth base sits upon substantial, hand-carved melon-lobed bun feet with carved rosette caps—crafted by a true master cabinetmaker at the height of their skill.
Exceptional Grain & Rich Patina: The expansive tilt-top features book-matched rosewood veneers exhibiting dramatic dark figure, striking ink-black striations, and a rich, warm, deep-red tone with a glass-like finish.
Generous Proportions: Measuring 130 cm in diameter, this table is noticeably larger than typical breakfast tables of the era, comfortably seating up to 6 people while offering an impressive visual presence in a grand dining room or entrance hall.
Condition & Mechanics: Offered in exceptional condition throughout. The tilt-top mechanism functions smoothly on its original brass tilt-latch hinges, locking securely flat or standing upright for space-saving display.
