19th Century Mahogany Baby Pembroke Table

About the Item

A Good Quality Mid 19th Century, Victorian Period, Mahogany Baby Pembroke Table, Having Well Figured Drop Flap Rectangular Top, Over Two Frieze Drawers, With Replacement Brass Turned Knobs, Opposed By Two False Drawers To The Reverse, Raised On Turned, Tapering Legs With Original Porcelain Castors. Pembroke tables in their full size form quickly became one of the most popular pieces of furniture around the homes of the mid 18th century onwards, mainly due to their huge versatility and the plethora of different spaces which they can be situated in. In fact George Hepplewhite himself described pembroke tables as the most useful of tables and there are many references to them in 18th and 19th century literature, with Jane Austen herself even describing them being used in various different ways. It is absolutely certain that they are just as incredibly versatile for use in todays world as they were in 18th century england. The ability of being able to use the two flaps to create significant variation with the size of the table top is very much a popular feature. This type of table is actually referred to as a “Baby Pembroke” table and this is due to the fact it is of course smaller in proportion than its full size siblings. These smaller varieties are even more useful than thei rfull size counterparts and can be used pretty much anywhere that one desires around the home. This one, which dates to the middle of the 19th century, is certainly a good practical and functional size and remains in good condition. It is also very sturdy and the drawers operate efficiently meaning that it is very much fit for original purpose.
