Object Description
A Very Good Quality Late 18th Century Mahogany George III
Period Partners Writing Table Of Good Proportions Having
Attractive Old Leather Inset Top With Gilt Tooled Decoration
Over Six Frieze Drawers Retaining Original Brass Handles
Flanked By Cross Banded Tablets To Each Corner Raised On
Elegant Square Tapering Legs With Original Brass Castors
(A very good quality table of good functional proportions that can
be used as both a desk for every day use in an office or study, or
alternatively as a central standing table decorative table in any
other room due to its undoubted elegance. The leather is not original
but has some significant age to it, but remains in good, relatively clean
condition. The gilt tooled decoration is elegantly carried out and the
six drawers retain their original brass fittings. Another lovely feature is
the banded tablet panels at the top of each leg which would of course
have contrasted significantly more against the mahogany when the table
was first made.)
