This refined gaming table of English craftsmanship from the late eighteenth century represents an example of exceptional marquetry quality. The foldable top, made of fine flame Mahogany with particularly pronounced grains, reveals a playing surface lined with green baize upon opening, framed by a meticulously crafted flame Mahogany border. The structure is distinguished by the elegant perimeter apron, finely scrolled, which harmoniously connects to the Cabriole legs characterized by the sinuous curves typical of the period's style. The overall silhouette displays perfectly balanced proportions, a testament to the artisan mastery of the Georgian era. The dimensions of the furniture, 123 cm wide by 60 cm deep and 76 cm high when closed, transform to 123 cm wide by 121 cm deep and 75 cm high when open, making it a versatile and functional piece for formal environments. An authentic collector's item that combines historical value, aesthetic refinement, and practicality. See less
