Description

A really beautiful late 18th century Hepplewhite period solid mahogany TEA TABLE in remarkable original condition.

Of slightly eliptical shape (39ins wide; 18ins deep) this table retains its gorgeous original patina and depth of colour. The beautifully figured top, with its thumb-nail moulded edges, opens up to reveal the similarly figured interior.

Below the frieze it is supported on four tapering and reeded legs (with double gate-leg action) leading to pretty "toupee" feet, whilst each leg is headed by finely carved oval paterae. Everything that is fine and desirable in Hepplewhite furniture is represented in this truly lovely table.
