This Regency specimen marble centre table echoes the allure of the Grand Tour, when British travellers journeyed through Europe, gathering souvenirs that celebrated the ruined splendour of classical Rome. Exquisite tables such as this brought a touch of ancient history into English drawing rooms, offering a vivid reminder of travels abroad and the refined pursuits of Regency society. Examples of similar tables are found in prominent museum collections and stately homes, testifying to their enduring appeal and historical significance.

Notable Features:

  • Masterful specimen marblework, featuring Blue John and other rare stones set in geometric patterns evocative of Roman mosaics
  • Elegant English base designed in the Regency manner, combining balanced proportions with subtle decorative details
  • Desirable form and compact scale, suitable as either a centrepiece in an accent table collection or as a striking stand-alone furnishing
  • Collectable due to its rare combination of materials and the impeccable survival of both marble and mounting, making it a valuable addition for collectors seeking period authenticity and decorative impact

This centre table is not only an object of artistry and taste but also a practical treasure, ideal for displaying objets d’art, books, or simply offering a touch of heritage to modern interiors. Its harmonious blend of Italian marble and English Regency design highlights the cosmopolitan sophistication of the era, and it remains as desirable now as it was to the grand tourists who first sought such pieces as tokens of their journeys.
