Object Description
Very fine quality early 19th century oak Regency library writing table. This table has everything you could want, brass gallery, end supports, high stretcher, thin frieze and lovely old skiver. The timber is a proper cut of dense grained oak and it is a beautiful golden colour. The brass gallery is good and precise with shapes in it that echo the stylised flower motif in the centre of the frieze. This is the more desirable end support, with the straight legs and 90 degree curve at the base from the Gillow pattern book. As with most library tables, this one is free standing so it can be used as a sofa table as well as a library table, writing table or side table.
