About the Item

A Rare Pair of R.J. Horner End Tables, Side Tables or Pedestals This stunning rare pair of end or side tables is simply magnificent. The one of a kind pair having finely inlaid table tops depicting a center star with inlaid stars flanking a central array of floral, sway and leaf design. The satinwood and walnut table top supported by two groupings of tripod legs each finely carved with full busted winged maidens leading to a center pole with three busts of winged griffins. The pair having been finely hand rubbed French polished. This pair on consignment from the Gold Coast of Long Island, NY. Robert J. Horner was a clerk in a curtain store in New York City with a keen business sense and knowledge of trends in the furniture industry, and that prompted him to establish R.J. Horner & Co. in 1886, at 61-65 W. 23rd Street in lower Manhattan. Horner’s marketing strategy was to target the wealthy as well as those of modest means. It paid off handsomely. Much of what came out of his shop was heavily carved, but it could also be formal and less embellished. Horner would display furniture in his building for people to see, so they could get inspiration when designing their homes. Initially, he capitalized on America’s newfound fascination with the Japanese style by making faux bamboo furniture, using maple wood and staining to make it look like bamboo. But the line soon expanded to include dining room sets, partners desks, hall trees, bookcases, tables, china cabinets, servers, sideboards, parlor sets, clock cases, benches, mirrors and more. Horner famously used only the finest mahogany and oak hardwoods for his creations.
