English Georgian Chippendale Mahogany Piecrust Tilt and Turn Table 18th Century

About the Item

English Georgian Chippendale period plum pudding mahoganypiecrust tilt and turn table. This tea table is beautifully carved with the top being a single board, the pedestal base having carving to the stem as well as sophisticated acanthus leaf carving to the knees and toes of the three cabriole legs. As one expects with an 18th century piecrust table, the elegant piecrust edge is achieved by carving out the central area of the table top and forming the edge through painstaking carving of the whole (in later tables the carved edge was applied on top of the board, which cut down on the amount of labor and the expertise needed to achieve a piecrust table). This table retains its original birdcage mechanism which allows the table top to rotate. Circa 1770.

    Repaired: Minor leveling to the top of the birdcage was needed (those are the two added thin small pieces of wood one sees when the table is tilted and the top of the birdcage is revealed-see photo)-not viewable when the table top is in its normal position. Wear consistent with age and use. Lovely timber in this table and sophisticated carving, very stable and ready to be enjoyed for many generations to come.
