This nineteenth-century William IV rosewood workbox and occasional table combines polished figured timber with a frieze drawer containing mahogany linings and a lock plate. Below the drawer hangs a suspended heart-shaped work basket in dark red fabric trimmed with white braid, held within tapering U-shaped supports on a central turned pedestal stem and a quadripartite platform base with scroll feet and brass castors. Standing 73 cm high by 51 cm wide and 73 cm deep, the piece functions well at the end of a sofa or beside an armchair in a traditional living space to hold sewing accessories or small everyday items.

FAQs

A William IV rosewood worktable is a piece of small occasional furniture dating from the 1830s, typically featuring an upper drawer alongside a suspended fabric pouch or drop well designed to store needlework and crafts.

These tables were constructed using fine timber veneers such as rosewood or mahogany over solid pine or oak frames, often fitted with silk or fabric linings and brass castors.

Pieces from the William IV era (18301837) are distinguished by sturdy turned pedestals, quadform bases, carved scroll feet, and rich rosewood veneers, bridging the Regency and early Victorian styles.

An antique worktable functions well as a compact side table beside an armchair or sofa, providing concealed storage while introducing historical texture to modern rooms.

Dust the surface regularly with a dry microfibre cloth and apply a clear beeswax polish once or twice a year, keeping the table away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve the veneer.
