English Regency Mahogany Games Table with Leather Playing Surface, 19th Century

An English Regency mahogany games table, dating to the early 19th century, combining elegant form with practical versatility. The rectangular top, inlaid with a central satinwood medallion and crossbanding, swivels and opens to reveal a square playing surface lined in tooled leather. When fully opened, the top measures 35.5 inches square, offering ample space for cards or board games.

Beneath the top, the apron houses a discreet storage compartment, with a baize lining for game pieces. The table is supported by a pair of elegant scrolled lyre-form supports joined by a shaped low shelf, all resting on four splayed legs terminating in brass caps and casters for easy movement. The warm patina of the figured mahogany, combined with the fine inlay and Regency silhouette, makes this piece as decorative as it is functional. Equally suited for use as a console when closed or as a central games table when open, it is a refined addition to a library, drawing room, or study.
