19th Century Irish Queen Ann-Style Library Table in Mahogany w/ Carved Scallops

About the Item

An exquisite Irish library table in fine mahogany dating from the first half of the 1800s in the Queen Anne revival style with exceptional carvings of rococo motifs. A long rectangular tray-board top embellished with coquillage or carved scallop motifs on the corners and the edges rests on a base with cabriole legs that end in hairy padded feet. Very well-articulated carvings of acanthus springing from the knees extend out beyond the corners to the sides, front and back with floating rosettes and acanthus foliage. On both of the long sides of the apron there is a cartouche, delineated by a carved rope motif and stems with acanthus leafs, whose centre has a carved peony or rose with buds and palmettes. The carving throughout is organic and very animated, a testimony to the seasoned artistry of a carver with great artistic merit and skill. While the serving board looks like a tray, it is secured to the base. Northern Ireland, circa 1830. Note: You should always request a shipping quote.

  • American Grecian-Style Mahogany Pier Table w/ Nero Portoro Marble, Meeks & Sons
    By Joseph Meeks
    Located in Miami, FL
    Attributable to the New York cabinetmaker, Joseph Meeks & Sons, a very beautiful American Empire console or pier table in the Grecian style in fine West Indies mahogany with Italian black, nero portoro marble top that has white & some warm gold veins. New York, circa 1830. Top rests over a base whose apron offers a sculpted ogee edge & is supported by "S" shaped volutes. An inset mirror takes up a good part of the back, allowing for the reflection of light as well as affording the ability to check one's clothing & shoe apparel. Customarily, a pier table like this would have been placed at an entrance, hallway or staircase landing & would have been paired with a tall vertical mirror which would have hung above the table or partially rested on top of it. Original porcelain casters are concealed within the square feet. Restored in our workshop with a French polish finish. Note: You should always request a shipping quote. Quoted amounts are an estimate of what it might cost to ship out to you based on destinations of the greatest distance. We would love to find you a better quote if possible.
