Antique 20th Century Small Drop Leaf Table in Mahogany

1900 - 1920
For Sale by ActFurniture LTD
Description

Antique 20th century small drop leaf table in mahogany, a charming and versatile piece designed with practicality in mind. 

The table stands on beautifully turned legs, two of which are fitted with castors for easier movement, while the others are joined by a supporting stretcher. 

Its drop leaf design allows the top to be extended when additional surface space is needed and folded down again for compact storage, making it particularly useful where space is limited. 

The mahogany displays a gorgeous natural grain and rich colour throughout, adding plenty of warmth and traditional character. 

In good condition, well made and of good quality, this practical little table is wonderfully adaptable and can be tucked neatly away when not in use.

This Edwardian occasional table is constructed from dark brown mahogany with metal castors. The piece takes the form of a small drop-leaf table in an English Country House style, featuring a drop-leaf mechanism, turned legs, a trestle base, and a central stretcher rail. The timber displays a polished finish with visible grain, while the turned uprights incorporate decorative ring-mouldings and sit upon shaped bracket feet, with small metal wheels attached to the lower ends of select legs to assist with mobility. The drop flaps hang vertically when lowered, creating a slender profile for storage. The dimensions when closed measure 74 cm high, 60 cm wide, and 16 cm deep. This versatile item is suited for placement at the end of a sofa or in narrow hallways as a practical surface that expands when extra space is required in compact living areas.

FAQs

Originating in the sixteenth century, the drop-leaf table was designed to maximise floor space by allowing the tabletop surfaces to fold down when not in use. By the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, compact variations like Sutherland and gateleg tables became popular additions to British living rooms and dining areas.

These tables were commonly crafted from hardwoods such as mahogany, oak, or walnut, featuring turned timber legs, rule joints along the hinged flaps, and internal wooden swivelling gates or trestle supports to hold the leaves upright.

Authentic pieces feature dark, dense grain structures consistent with solid mahogany or mahogany veneers, hand-assembled brass or steel hinges under the flaps, turned spindle details, and natural wear patterns on the feet and stretchers.

Position the table with leaves folded down against a wall or beside a sofa to serve as a compact side table, or open the flaps in a small dining alcove paired with contemporary seating to create a balanced juxtaposition of period and modern elements.

Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth and apply a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year in the direction of the wood grain. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent the timber from warping or drying out.
