Made from well figured Cuban mahogany, the table is a very good example of a George II piece of furniture. With carved decoration and bold cabriole legs that have claw & ball feet. The top opens to reveal a baized interior with candle squares. The colour and patination are both excellent and this table is slightly narrower than usual at 30 inches.

Archival Detail
Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Originating between 1727 and 1760, George II card tables are characterized by rich mahogany timber, shaped fold-over tops, and prominent cabriole legs. They frequently display detailed carving such as shell motifs, acanthus leaves, and ball-and-claw feet.

These tables were primarily constructed using dense Cuban mahogany, valued for its grain and dark hue. Interior playing surfaces often featured wool baize, with brass hinges and hand-forged iron lock mechanisms.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-sawn timber marks, hand-cut dovetail joints on drawers, and natural oxidisation on the underside. Original brass drop handles and gate-leg support mechanisms with Period-appropriate wear further confirm age.

When closed, these versatile tables function as compact hall consoles or side tables in living rooms and entryways. They pair effectively with contemporary artwork hung above or flanked by modern table lamps.

Preserve the patination by applying a high-quality beeswax polish once or twice a year. Keep the table away from direct heat sources and sunlight to prevent timber movement and finish degradation.
