Mahogany Drop Leaf Work Table, Early 19th Century American Empire

About the Item

An American Empire mahogany drop-leaf worktable ready for light tasks or to function as a beautiful piece. Appraisers say it was probably produced in New York from 1825 to 1835. Designers will love deciding how to pair this vintage item with more contemporary plans. Wether folded away or opened with the workspace visible, this is a fascinating piece of furniture. The top is rectangular with a rounded edged top and the drop leaves are also two rule-edged. The piece has two drawers with glass pulls. It is raised on a flaring squared pedestal, all on a scrolling quadripartite base. Solid wood drawers have dovetail joints. The piece is in good condition, but there are signs of wear to the finish. This is a collectible piece, antique--but the design and functionality give it a contemporary feel. More pics on request.

It is Victorian, carved and turned walnut on a part-upholstered corner armchair that is English or American from the late 19th Century according to our appraiser. The seat is triangular with a rounded front rail, that is backed by two low arms with raised upholstery.
