Attractive Antique Regency Inlaid Mahogany Writing Table with Rear Screen

19th century
For Sale by Abacus Antiques
Description

A lovely inlaid mahogany writing table. We date this table to the early 19th century.

The table sits on four downward slender tapered legs with inlaid contouring and brass casters. There is a stretcher at the rear legs.

The table top has a decorative mahogany veneered surface with an inlaid edge along three sides. It has a rise and fall screen at the rear of the table with floral decorated fabric.

The table has a height of 31.5" (80cm), a width of 21.5" (54cm) and a depth of 19.5" (49cm). With the screen opened the total height is 49.5” (126cm) and the depth is 18” (46cm).

The kneehole has a height of 25.5” (65cm).

This lovely writing table remains in a good solid condition with minor surface markings commensurate with age and usage, including a few light indentations to some of the corners and around the edges. There are some minor marks around the feet from past use. The table is missing an amount of edge inlay as can be seen in the pictures.

The rise and fall screen has some tears in the fabric and shows scratches from being pulled up and down. The internal writing slope of the drawer and the key are missing.

This remains a very stylish and elegant antique table. It will continue to provide good service for many years to come.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Regency writing tables, produced during the early nineteenth century in Britain, are defined by Neoclassical influences, clean geometric silhouettes, thin boxwood or ebony stringing, and slender tapered or turned legs often fitted with brass castors.

Craftsmen predominantly favoured imported hardwoods such as mahogany and rosewood, accented with brass hardware, fabric or needlework screens, and decorative satinwood or boxwood inlays.

Authentic pieces display period-correct joinery such as hand-cut dovetail joints in drawer linings, original brass castors, authentic patina on the timber, and hand-applied line inlay.

These compact tables serve as versatile accent pieces, functioning as side tables, compact hallway desks, or decorative displays in living spaces and study alcoves.

Maintain mahogany timber by dusting with a soft microfiber cloth, applying beeswax periodically along the grain, and keeping the piece away from direct heat sources or intense sunlight to prevent drying and fading.
