Description

RETIREMENT SALE. 50% DISCOUNT. WAS £2495. NOW £1250.

A Superb Set of Edwardian Nest of Four "Quartetto" Tables, Circa 1900.

This exceptional set of nesting tables has been meticulously restored and traditionally hand-polished in our workshops to showcase its rich, warm colour and deep patination. Each graduated table features a beautifully figured top, masterfully crossbanded and accented with delicate boxwood and ebony string inlay. The centres are dominated by highly striking, vibrant flame mahogany veneer ovals that create a wonderful sense of depth and symmetry across the set. The tables are raised on exceptionally elegant, slender faux-bamboo ring-turned legs, terminating in classic out-swept slipper feet. Combining delicate Edwardian refinement with excellent structural stability, this versatile quartetto set is ready for immediate placement in a fine period home or contemporary interior.

Condition: Excellent. Fully restored, revived, and polished in our workshops.

This Edwardian quartetto nest of four tables brings classic English Country House style to any reception space. Each table in the graduated set has a rich warm brown mahogany top featuring a vibrant flame mahogany veneer oval centre, delicate boxwood and ebony string inlay, and crossbanded borders. The structure is supported by slender faux-bamboo ring-turned legs that finish in out-swept slipper feet. Measuring 64 cm high by 48 cm wide by 33 cm deep for the largest table and 59 cm high by 31 cm wide by 27 cm deep for the smallest, this versatile assembly fits neatly beside the end of a sofa or in a corner. The restored surfaces are traditionally hand-polished to a deep finish, making the pieces ready for daily use in a period or contemporary interior.

FAQs

Quartetto tables are a set of four nesting side tables designed to slide neatly beneath one another, popularised during the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

These pieces typically feature hardwoods such as mahogany, rosewood, or satinwood, often adorned with marquetry, stringing, or flame grain veneers on the tabletops.

Look for hand-cut joinery beneath the tops, natural wood shrinkage on older veneers, turned slender legs, and uniform wear patterns consistent with age and stacking usage.

Place the set alongside a sofa or armchair, either fully nested to save space or staggered to create layered display tiers for lamps, books, and decorative accents.

Dust regularly with a soft dry cloth and apply a quality beeswax polish sparingly twice a year, keeping the wood away from direct heat sources and damp environments.
