Item Description
A Late 20th Century Walnut Inlaid Console Table by Brights of Nettlebed
An elegant late 20th century console table by Brights of Nettlebed, a respected family firm renowned for fine English furniture since 1866. This refined piece combines classic English design with excellent modern cabinetmaking.
Executed in richly toned walnut with exquisite inlay throughout, the console has a superb, finely finished top surface above a long, smoothly running drawer, fitted with brass accent handles. It stands on slender, tapered legs finished with brass sabots to the feet, lending a crisp, tailored look and underlining the quality of the construction.
This model remains in production today and can still be ordered new from Brights of Nettlebed, which speaks to both the quality and enduring desirability of the design.
Walnut has long been regarded as one of the finest timbers for furniture, prized for its deep, chocolate-brown colour, elegant grain and excellent durability. It brings immediate warmth and a sense of understated luxury to both traditional and contemporary interiors.
Although this is not the type of piece I usually offer, I was particularly struck by the standard of craftsmanship, the sharpness of the inlay and its strong decorative presence. I acquired this console from a large private estate in Surrey, together with a longer console table, a large coffee table, a chest of drawers and a pair of side tables, all in the same walnut with matching inlay and the same high level of workmanship.
This is a versatile, timeless console, ideal for an entrance hall, living room, dining room or study. Elegant yet practical, it is designed to be both used and admired, and to give pleasure for many years to come.
