Regency Goncalo Alves Occasional Table

A refined example of early nineteenth-century English craftsmanship, this Regency Goncalo Alves occasional table showcases the elegance and sophistication characteristic of the Regency period. With its distinctive choice of timber and refined form, it is an excellent representation of high-quality accent tables from the era.

Material: Goncalo alves

Dimensions: Height 73 cm, Width 51 cm, Depth 38 cm

Condition: Excellent patina; minor period-appropriate wear

During the Regency period, accent tables such as this were highly prized by discerning collectors and fashionable households. The use of exotic Goncalo alves wood indicates both status and taste, aligning this piece stylistically with fine examples found in prominent collections, including those in the Victoria and Albert Museum. Its slender proportions and elegant lines reflect the design trends of early nineteenth-century England, drawing inspiration from classical motifs yet showcasing a subtle, understated opulence.

Notable Features:

  • Exceptional Craftsmanship:
    The table boasts finely figured Goncalo alves, a timber sought after for its rich colour and striking grain. The surface retains its beautiful original patina, highlighting the exceptional hand-finishing typical of Regency accent tables.

  • Refined Regency Design:
    Features delicately tapered legs and gently rounded corners, emblematic of Regency symmetry and balance. The minimal ornamentation celebrates the natural beauty of the wood, while subtle mouldings and crisp joins underscore the table’s period authenticity.

  • Collecting Value:
    Pieces of this standard, using Goncalo alves and in such fine condition, are seldom available on the market. Its distinguished regional provenance and superb Regency form make it highly desirable amongst collectors of early nineteenth-century English furniture.

  • Practical and Decorative Value:
    Perfectly sized as an accent or end table, it sits comfortably in both period and contemporary interiors. Whether used to display treasured objects or as an elegant focal point, this occasional table offers style and utility for knowledgeable collectors and interior designers alike.

This Regency Goncalo Alves occasional table stands as a testament to the artistry and innovation of its time—equally suitable for distinguished collections, stylish homes, or those seeking an authentic period accent piece.
