A George III Mahogany Silver Table — Centre Table

A fine and rare example of English furniture, this George III mahogany silver table exemplifies the Chinese Chippendale style of the mid-18th century. Showcasing crisp Chinoiserie-inspired details, this accent table is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of Georgian antiques.

Origin: England

Date: Circa 1765

Material: Mahogany

Dimensions: Height: 76 cm (30 in), Width: 79 cm (31 in), Depth: 56 cm (22 in)

Condition: Excellent, with a rich patina and only the most minor restorations in keeping with age.

George III furniture marked a period of refined elegance in English interiors, with leading figures such as Thomas Chippendale introducing a taste for Chinese ornamentation. This superb silver table, once in the collection of renowned dealer Frank Partridge, perfectly encapsulates the allure of the Chinese Chippendale style, blending crisp mahogany with Oriental motifs and striking architectural details. Tables of this character can be found in important collections and museums, celebrated for their historic relevance and decorative appeal.

Notable Features:

  • Outstanding cluster column legs adorned with cruciform low-relief ornament at the joints, underlining the table’s unique Chippendale influences.
  • An unusual double-column x-frame stretcher, lending both structural integrity and striking visual interest.
  • Elegant chinoiserie accents, reflecting the period’s fascination with Far Eastern design within a stately Regency aesthetic.
  • Crafted from select mahogany, the table retains a warm, glowing patina, indicative of its age and distinguished provenance.

The design significance of this piece rests in the harmonious balance between robust Georgian construction and the fanciful curves and motifs of the Chinese Chippendale movement. Few centre tables of this period display such a blend of technical skill and decorative flair, making it a highly sought-after addition for collectors specialising in Georgian antiques or Chinese Chippendale furniture.

This exceptional George III mahogany silver table is ideal for prominent display in both classical and contemporary settings, equally at home as a centrepiece or an accent table. Its noble provenance, exceptional style, and rarity underscore its appeal for discerning buyers, historians, and connoisseurs alike.
