Fine Regency Inlaid Rosewood Card Table with Brass Sabots & Castors c.1820

A fine quality Regency period rosewood card table dating from circa 1820, of elegant proportions and beautifully decorated with delicate boxwood and satinwood stringing throughout. The fold-over top opens to reveal the original green baize-lined playing surface, supported on a distinctive twin turned column pedestal. The table stands on elegant swept sabre legs terminating in finely cast brass acanthus-mounted sabots and original brass castors. The frieze is richly ornamented with inlaid decorative motifs and retains excellent colour and figure to the rosewood veneers. The combination of refined inlay, attractive proportions and quality brass mounts makes this an especially desirable example of Regency furniture. A versatile and highly decorative piece, equally suited for use as a card table, occasional table or statement piece within a traditional interior. Condition: Presented in good antique condition with age-related wear consistent with its period. The baize playing surface shows expected signs of use and the table displays a rich patina throughout. Circa: 1820
