A beautiful and elegant antique mahogany & satinwood inlaid writing table. I would say this dates from around the 1790-1810 period. It is very well made and has lots of lovely features.

This is made from solid mahogany and veneered mahogany, with beautiful satin wood inlays. The drawers have brass handles, escutcheons and the tapered spade end feet have brass casters too. The top and drawers have satin wood cross banding, and the drawers are solid oak lined with fine dovetails. This is nicely finished on the back too, so can be used as a free standing piece.

We have just had this French polished, and the top has had a new leather added. The leather has been hand tooled and coloured to give it a beautiful patina.
