Georgian Rosewood Card Table
About the Item
A Very Good Quality And Very Attractive Late 18tth Century George III Period Rosewood Card Table, Of Rectangular D Shaped Form, Having Superbly Figured Foldover Top With Crossbanded And Inlaid Decoration, Enclosing Refreshed Baized Playing Surface, Raised On Elegant Square Tapering Legs.
The original purpose of a Card Table was to stand at the side of a room and act effectively as a side, or console type table, with the ability to be pulled out into the middle of a room and opened up to allow gaming at a moments notice. Often they were part of a suite, or pair and this would also involve a table of identical design aside from having a wooden surface inside, as opposed to the baized playing surface.
Card games amongst other things was of course a popular pastime during the 18th and 19th centuries, so of course whenever one was entertaining it would be almost certain that your card table would be brought out into use. It was therefore important to people to ensure that the card tables they owned were exactly as they wanted them to be and the overall design, or quality, was felt to be befitting of their social status at the time.
This is an excellent example of it's type, constructed from suiperbly figured rosewood veneers and boasts good quality to its construction along with incredibnly elegant legs.
The baized plaing surface has been relatively recently replaced, meaning that it is in more than functional condition and there is no doubt at all that it is absolutely fit for original purpose.
Alternatively of course it is very elegant and attractive and would make an excellent side table, or console table just about anywhere that one is required.
As with all items we offer for sale the 18th century rosewood card table has been inspected by our highly skilled, well trained, traditional antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish to ensure it is ready for immediate placement after purchase.
