Antique Burr Walnut Marquetry Inlaid Circular Centre Dining Table with Gilded Decoration

1900 - 1920
Description

A magnificent quality antique burr walnut circular centre or dining table of exceptional craftsmanship, boasting a richly figured top, exquisite marquetry inlay and elaborate gilded decoration. Dating to circa 1920, this outstanding table is a truly impressive statement piece, combining the grandeur of Regency design with the finest decorative detailing.

The substantial circular top showcases beautifully figured burr walnut veneers, arranged to create a wonderfully rich and symmetrical grain pattern. An intricate floral marquetry border, set within a contrasting darker band, encircles the top and provides a striking decorative feature. The deep frieze is further embellished with finely detailed gilded brass floral mounts.

The impressive central pedestal is beautifully shaped and adorned with elaborate gilded carved decoration, complemented by three elegant scrolling walnut supports. The pedestal stands upon a substantial circular platform base, raised on boldly carved paw feet with gilded highlights.

The exceptional quality of the veneers, intricate marquetry and finely executed decorative elements make this a particularly splendid example. Its glorious warm colour and impressive proportions create a wonderful sense of grandeur, whether displayed as a magnificent centre table in a spacious entrance hall or used as an elegant dining table.

Measuring 179 cm in diameter, this versatile table can comfortably accommodate eight diners, with the possibility of seating ten depending on chair dimensions.

Condition: Very good antique condition with minor age-related wear consistent with its age and use. A beautiful rich colour and attractive polished finish.

A circular centre table from this era is typically designed to stand freestanding in the middle of a hall, drawing room, or foyer. Key features include a central pedestal base, decorative edge veneers, and highly ornate detailing such as marquetry inlays or gilded appliques.

These tables are constructed using a solid timber frame layered with decorative veneers like burr walnut, mahogany, or rosewood. Intricate marquetry borders often incorporate contrasting fruitwoods, brass, or mother-of-pearl, complemented by gilded wooden or bronze elements.

Authentic pieces feature natural variations in the wood grain pattern, subtle shrinkage lines along veneer joints, and hand-carved pedestal supports. Hand-cut marquetry sections often show minor irregularities under close inspection compared to modern laser-cut reproductions.

A large circular centre table can serve as an entryway focal point, topped with a large central vase or sculpture. Alternatively, it functions effectively as a focal dining table surrounded by tailored contemporary or period-style dining chairs.

Maintain the surface by dusting with a soft, dry microfibre cloth and applying natural beeswax sparingly along the grain of the wood. Keep the table away from direct sunlight and radiators to prevent the wood veneer from lifting and the gilt decoration from cracking.
