19th Century Scottish Regency Rosewood Centre Table

19th Century Labelled Scottish Regency Rosewood Centre Table by P&R Williamson, Inverness. This wonderful table has incredible book-matched rosewood veneers to the top, which has a glorious colour and patination. There is a half bobbin moulding to the edge and then a plain frieze. The top tilts, allowing the table to be stored upright. The columnar stem with lotus leaf carving and a wrythen turned base. Standing on a moulded triform platform base with wonderfully carved scrolled feet with central paterae. Our table has an interesting inscription to the underside, revealing that it was supplied by "P&R Williamson, upholsterers & c" of Inverness. Research in the newspaper archives has revealed that the firm was based in Church Street in Inverness. (#3974)
