This richly grained mahogany card table epitomises the prevailing Georgian taste for both decorative and functional furniture, comparable to distinguished examples in institutions such as the Victoria and Albert Museum. The ball and claw feet—an iconic motif of the era—along with lavishly carved scallop shells and elegant swag details, link this piece to the sought-after output of leading cabinetmakers from London’s Golden Age of furniture-making. Its practical folding top, opening to reveal original baize and sunken counter wells, exemplifies the English penchant for adaptable and sociable console tables.

Notable Features:

  • Exquisite craftsmanship: Deeply carved scallop shells in high relief, with flowing swags on all four legs, represent the height of period joinery and carving.

  • Classic George III design: Cabriole legs finished in expressive ball and claw feet provide a harmonious blend of Rococo curves and restrained Georgian symmetry.

  • Rarity and desirability: Its well-preserved condition, showcase-worthy carving, and original playing surface make it a coveted piece for collectors of 18th-century accent tables.

  • Versatile use: Perfect as a display piece, accent table, or as the focal point to any curated collection of historical furniture, this George III mahogany card table is equally suited for traditional or contemporary interiors.
