George III Mahogany Drum Table

A superb example of Georgian craftsmanship, this fine quality mahogany drum table is offered in exceptional showroom condition. Featuring a beautifully figured circular top, it is adorned with a striking satinwood crossbanded border and refined ebony string inlay—details that highlight the table’s understated elegance.

The frieze is fitted with four working drawers, each constructed from solid mahogany with traditional hand-cut dovetail joints and cockbeaded fronts. These are complemented by four matching dummy drawers, preserving the symmetrical design around the entire frieze. All drawers operate smoothly and are lockable with the two included keys.

Unusually, this piece features a polished top rather than the more common leather inset, giving it a sleek, clean-lined aesthetic. The absence of drawer handles enhances its minimalist appeal while still maintaining its period character.

Supported by a well-turned central column, the table rests on four splayed and carved legs, each terminating in decorative brass cup castors, ensuring both elegance and practicality.

This is a truly outstanding and rare piece of English furniture, combining form and function in a timeless Georgian design.
