Item Description

Very Fine & Elegant Mid 19th-Century Victorian Burr Walnut Carved Centre Table

A superb example of mid 19th century English craftsmanship, this very fine Victorian burr walnut carved centre table combines exceptional quality, striking design and real decorative presence. Dating from 1850, the table features a beautifully shaped top in richly figured burr walnut, displaying wonderfully vivid grain patterns. The surface is framed with refined rosewood crossbanding and a carved moulded edge, all resting on an impressive solid walnut, basket shaped “birdcage” base. The base stands on elegantly shaped legs with finely carved details, each terminating in the original brass castors. The table also retains its original carved finials, both to the top and the lower stretcher, a mark of its completeness and quality. The colour and patina are entirely original, with a warm, characterful glow that only well preserved period furniture acquires over time. Structurally sound and in excellent original condition, this is a top quality piece throughout.
This versatile table works equally well as a centre table in an entrance hall, a small dining or breakfast table, or a statement occasional table in a sitting room, library or study. Its generous, practical surface makes it ideal for displaying lamps, books, objets d’art or floral arrangements, while its sculptural base ensures it is as beautiful from every angle as it is useful.
Combining originality, elegance and function, this Victorian burr walnut centre table is a true statement piece for any interior that values fine 19th century craftsmanship and timeless style.
