Fine Pair Regency Mahogany & Satinwood-Inlaid Sofa Tables
About the Item
A fine and rare pair of English Regency-period mahogany sofa tables of elegant design.
Early-19th century, ca 1811 - 1820.
Note the beautifully-figured, matched mahogany & satinwood tops supported on ‘curule’ legs, united by a stretcher. The tops with broad satinwood margins contained within ebony and boxwood lines with rosewood crossbandings. Cedar-lined working drawers with dummy fronts to the reverse. All of lovely quality. In superb condition throughout.
Dimensions:
Height: 28”
Width: leaves down 34”, extended 59”
Depth: 30”
Deep rich colour, good patina - and ready to be installed in a drawing room, or equally at home in a library.
It was considered very fashionable to display a pair of sofa tables during the English Regency. Of this form and quality these are very rare, highly desirable and seldom appear on the market especially in pairs. Both have a useful working long drawer and are often used as writing tables.

View AllFine Regency Mahogany Library Centre Table
Located in Lymington, GB
A fine Regency-period tilt-top brass inlaid mahogany and calamander library center table.
Raised on a concave-sided triform base, with well-modelled cast-brass scrolling feet.
Also referred to as a monopodium (table).
All in excellent condition, well figured, and of very good rich color.
Typical of designs by Thomas Hope (1769 - 1831).
This form of antique table is also associated with work by George Bullock (1777 - 1818) and George Oakley (circa 1765 - 1841).
Refs:
A similar table with a leather insert, in the manner of Thomas Hope, circa 1800 - 1805, was sold in London for £39,650 - December 2010.
This early 19th century table is reminiscent of the ‘Grecian’ style that the pioneering collector and designer Thomas Hope (1769-1831) popularized in Britain with the publication of ‘Household Furniture and Interior Decoration’ in 1807.
Thos. Hope (banker, born 1769, d. 1831)
The furniture manufacturer George Oakley (circa 1765-1841) was greatly influenced by Hope’s designs, and produced fashionable furniture in this style, using brass and star inlays similar to our table on offer. The firm’s designs and craftsmanship earned them royal patronage, and Oakley worked for the Prince Regent at Carlton House, as well as supplying furniture and upholstery for The Mansion House and The Bank of England. His work for the Cheere family - of Papworth Hall, Cambridgeshire, UK - is well documented.
The reference to Geo. Oakley relates to a known table of this pattern in calamander wood and brass marquetry of starred-ribbon guilloche, which corresponds to the brass marquetry in a table supplied by Oakley in 1810 to Papworth Hall.

Fine Rare Regency Chinoiserie Occasional Table
Located in Lymington, GB
A fine and rare English chinoiserie-decorated occasional table, circa 1820.
The subject matter is extremely rare in that it depicts Europeans in exotic oriental robes. One is seated with an opium pipe; displayed in a polychrome romantic tropical environment with pavilions, rockwork, trellising, foliage, palms, with a peacock and HoHo bird at their feet.
Note the very rare and charming depiction of these men with beards. In over 67 years we have never encountered a japanned table showing this European feature.
Raised on a gilded, reeded, partly-ebonised column rising from a stylised platform base and spreading, gilded animal...

Very Fine Chippendale Period Satinwood and Marquetry Desk
Located in Lymington, GB
A very fine Chippendale-period satinwood and marquetry desk.
English, George III-period, circa 1770.
The considerable use of the best quality mahogany in the carcass is typical of the very fine work of Thomas Chippendale.
It is rare today to find an 18th-century satinwood and marquetry-inlaid desk of this quality. (Most offered on the market are 19th/ 20th century). Major, period satinwood pieces have become almost unobtainable.
The superbly-controlled and delicate marquetry inlays are reminiscent of the fine decoration on the famous Diana and Minerva Commode by Chippendale at Harewood House...
