A rare and impressive large Regency rosewood drum table, dating to circa 1810, of beautifully figured rosewood with a rich, warm patina. The circular top is newly inset with thick quality leather, hand dyed using traditional technique to create a unique olive green colour, then finished with an elegant gold-tooled border. The frieze is fitted with four working drawers and four opposing dummy drawers, all retaining their attractive brass ring handles and escutcheons. Raised on a finely shaped pedestal base with elegant sweeping supports and castors.
A particularly handsome and substantial example of Regency furniture offered in excellent condition.
