george iii hepplewhite style mahogany card table

Circa 1775, George III Hepplewite style mahogany inlaid fold over card table. The D shaped top with kingwood, satinwood and boxwood crossbanding. In the centre is a large satinwood, boxwood and mahogany shell. The top opens to reveal a red baize lining inside and further crossbanding with ebony edging. Beneath the top is a simple apron with a small beading, dipping down in the centre and finishing with two small scrolls left and right. The shaped apron continues around the sides. The back legs are hinged in the centre and have a small clasp to lock them in position. These sweep out to hold the top when open. The table stands on 4 simple and elegant cabriole legs with a beaded edge at the front, finishing on simple raised feet. Beautiful example of furniture of this period.

Georgian Antiques

Georgian Antiques was founded in 1978 by John Dixon's brother Padriac in a small shop at Jocks Lodge, Meadowbank in Edinburgh, with John joining the business after finishing college in 1981. The business grew so rapidly, they couldn't keep up with their inventory needs. Their goal has been to create a one-stop-shop where designers can complete an entire project from antique lighting to antique furniture to accessories. Scotland's largest antiques warehouse is located in a converted whiskey bond in historic Leith Edinburgh. With 50,000sq ft over five floors we offer a wide range of quality Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian furniture, as well as continental and small decorative items. Our stock is constantly changing.
