This Regency work table is a nineteenth-century piece constructed from pollard oak and mahogany, rendered in a golden brown tone. The rectangular top has rounded corners and two drop flap leaves, positioned above opposing drawers fitted with turned wooden knob handles, beaded mouldings, and keyholes. Beneath the cabinet sits a sliding workbox covered in pleated cream silk fabric. The structure is supported by acanthus-carved lyre-end uprights, a central stretcher, and scrolled moulded legs with leaf-carved terminals resting on brass castors. The piece measures 73.8 cm high, 43 cm wide, and 56 cm deep. In a modern interior, this item functions practically as an occasional table at the end of a sofa or beside an armchair in a living room or study. The removable pleated fabric basket underneath provides concealed storage for sewing materials or small accessories, while the flat surface accommodates a reading lamp or decorative items. The compact proportions allow it to fit into smaller spaces, and the drop leaves permit adjustment of the surface area depending on immediate requirements.

FAQs

Popularised during the early 19th century Regency period, a work table is a compact occasional table designed primarily for needlework, featuring small drawers and a fabric basket beneath to store textiles.

These tables were commonly crafted from fine hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or pollard oak, often incorporating brass castors, silk or pleated fabric baskets, and figured wood veneers.

Authentic Regency pieces typically display classical revival elements like lyre legs, carved scroll feet, brass castors, hand-dovetailed drawers, and original wooden or brass drawer knobs.

A Regency work table functions effectively as an end table beside an armchair or sofa, offering compact storage while adding historical character to living rooms or hallways.

Maintain the wood finish by dusting regularly with a soft microfibre cloth and applying beeswax annually, while keeping the piece away from direct sunlight, radiators, and dampness.
