Description
George III Hepplewhite Side Table, the well-figured solid mahogany top with the serpentine front and curved sides, above a frieze of three drawers, each with silver plated and engraved ring handles and a lock and key to the center. The whole raised on straight legs with pierced fret-work spandrels and inlaid with marquetry of anthemia and harebells. In the context of 18th-century Georgian England, this George III Hepplewhite Side Table is an embodiment of the elegance and sophistication that characterised the era’s furniture design. Crafted from richly figured oak and mahogany, the favored material of the time for its durability and fine grain, the table showcases the Georgian preference for high-quality, natural materials. The table’s top, with its serpentine front and gracefully curved sides, reflects the Hepplewhite style’s affinity for gentle, flowing lines, moving away from the earlier, more rigid forms of Queen Anne and early Georgian design. This fluid shape would have been a fashionable addition to a refined Georgian drawing room, speaking to the taste and status of its owner. Beneath the top, a frieze of three drawers offers both functionality and beauty. Each drawer is fitted with silver plated and engraved ring handles, a luxurious touch typical of Georgian craftsmanship. The inclusion of a lock and key in the center drawer adds a layer of security and privacy. The straight legs of the table, a subtle yet distinct Hepplewhite characteristic, are enhanced with pierced fret-work spandrels. This intricate detail, along with the inlaid marquetry of anthemia and harebells, showcases the period’s mastery of woodwork and the influence of neoclassical motifs. Overall, this George III Hepplewhite Side Table is not only a functional piece of furniture but also a work of art, reflecting the artistic and cultural values of Georgian England.
