ITEM SW00837:
A Chippendale Mahogany Tea Table with Scalloped Edge
and Carved Fluted Legs, England, 19th century

This dark mahogany tea
table is of large serviceable size and works very
nicely in front of a sofa or chairs (to see its relative
proportion to a wing chair, see
image below). This tea table with scalloped edge
has a very delicate carved molding below the apron,
which is where the carved embellishment begins. The
four fluted legs are beautifully reeded with carved
floral corner blocks, as well as an edge beading.
The legs are further reinforced with pierced stretchers
of classic design (see additional images below).
This is a very solid
classical piece, typical of English Chippendale preference
for high style. It is in perfect original condition.

Height:
29 in. Width: 32 in. Depth: 21 in.
