Object Description
A Fine Quality George III Period Mahogany, Satinwood Banded
And Marquetry Inlaid Library Writing Table, Having Replacement
Gilt Tooled Leather Inset To Banded Top Over Four False Frieze
Drawers And Unusually One Drawer To Each End Raised On
Elegant Turned & Reeded Tapering Legs Terminating On
Original Brass Cup Castors
(A fine quality table of useful proportions that could be used
as both a desk in an office or study, or a central standing table
in any other room due to its elegance. It would even work nicely
on the back of a settee or similar and the leather top is perfect
for accommodating a collection of photo frames or similar in this
scenario. The leather is a modern replacement and suits the table
perfectly which has many fine details including the satinwood
banding, the marquetry inlay to the drawer fronts and the good
quality oak drawer linings. Another exceptional feature is the legs
which are as finely turned and executed as one is ever likely to find.)
