Item Description
An Exceptional Late Regency Writing Table, Almost Certainly by Gillows, with Tooled Leather Inset to the Top c.1820.
The table of rectangular form with a cast brass fretwork gallery to three sides and with re-entrant corners - a very nice visual touch that demanded significant skill from the maker to execute properly. The tooled leather insert to the top has a Greek key design to the edge which co-ordinates beautifully with the gallery. The table is supported on two typical Gillows end supports with turned spindle supports and outscrolling feet with original castors.
This piece relates to a number of designs for tables with spindle end supports in the Gillows estimate books dated c.1818-1820 and, with its highly sophisticated design, use of exceptional quilted mahogany veneers retaining its great colour, this is a wonderful piece of furniture.
