These tables are primarily constructed from solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, featuring brass hardware such as swan-neck drawer handles and brass castors fitted to the base of the legs.

How can you identify authentic period mahogany furniture?

Authentic period construction can be identified by examine joint details such as machine or hand-cut dovetails inside drawers, original period-style brass fittings, and natural surface wear consistent with age.

Position the pair flanking a bed with modern neutral bedding, paired with contemporary table lamps or wall sconces to balance the traditional dark wood tones within a modern setting.
