Early 19th century mahogany three-pedestal dining table
A distinguished example of Regency-period craftsmanship, this early 19th century mahogany three-pedestal dining table embodies refined proportion, robust construction, and an enduring sense of presence. The top is a finely figured single-board or joined-panel surface of rich, warm mahogany, beautifully patinated with the mellow sheen and subtle sunburst figure developed through two centuries of careful use and preservation.
