London City Antiques has dated this Mahogany Pedestal Dining Table to the 1920s.

The magnificent circular top displays beautifully figured mahogany veneers with a rich, warm colour and attractive natural grain. The perimeter is enhanced by a broad band of richly figured rosewood, bordered on either side by contrasting satinwood crossbanding, creating a particularly striking decorative effect. The beautifully polished surface showcases the quality of the veneers and the intricate craftsmanship of the crossbanded border.

The table is supported by a substantial central turned pedestal, raised on four elegantly swept and reeded sabre legs terminating in brass-capped castors. The graceful curvature of the legs provides an attractive contrast to the impressive circular top, whilst the central pedestal design allows for comfortable seating without the obstruction of corner legs.

Measuring an impressive 166 cm in diameter, this splendid table will accommodate eight diners, making it ideal for both everyday dining and more formal entertaining. The circular design encourages conversation and creates a wonderfully sociable dining arrangement, whilst its elegant proportions make it an impressive centrepiece for a dining room.

A particularly handsome and decorative example of early 20th century English cabinetmaking, this magnificent table would complement both traditional interiors and contemporary settings, where its rich mahogany colour and striking crossbanded detail would create a wonderful focal point.

Condition Report
Very good antique condition with appropriate age-related wear consistent with its age and use. The beautifully figured mahogany top retains a rich colour and attractive polished finish, with the contrasting rosewood and satinwood crossbanding presenting particularly well. The pedestal and swept legs are sturdy and substantial, retaining their brass-capped castors.
