Attractive Antique Regency Inlaid Mahogany Writing Table With Rear Screen

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.
