Antique Victorian Aesthetic Movement Mahogany Card Table c.1880
A fine Aesthetic Movement Victorian fold-over card table, the exposed mahogany top with painted decoration set within an ebonised border, above a base formed of four turned and fluted columns set on a cross-form base centred by a turned finial, raised on shaped feet with brass castors. Ebonised and decorated throughout with crisp incised gilt detail, the top swivels and folds open to reveal a baize-lined playing surface with a red and gilt-tooled border.
A strong Aesthetic Movement piece from the latter part of the 19th century, it works beautifully as a side table in the closed position, while the fold-over top offers a practical full-sized surface for cards or entertaining when required.
Very good antique condition with some surface wear consistent with age. The top has been carefully cleaned back from a later painted finish and the original line decoration has been carefully repainted following the original design. Structurally sound, clean and ready to place in the home.
English, circa 1880.
