ANTIQUE 19TH CENTURY CLASSICAL MAHOGANY 2 DRAWER WORK TABLE ON EXCEPTIONAL ACANTHUS CARVED GRIFFIN CLAW BASE

Thank you for shopping with Bay Colony Antiques. We're a third generation family owned business furnishing homes all over the world. We aggressively pursue important antiques, decorative arts, and objects of interest for our most discerning clients.

With our highest compliments we're excited to offer for sale this exceptional early 19th century Massachusetts mahogany 2 drawer classical work table. Early American furniture is our true passion. Our family is from Boston with our favorite furniture coming from Boston, the North Shore, and Philadelphia. We spend countless hours across the US intimately studying the finest furniture in public and private collections. We strongly feel this is a Massachusetts table with a special emphasis to Salem, MA / North Shore. By the early 19th century there were over 100 cabinet makers active in Salem. Being a major port city with a close proximity to Boston great wealth was made in the area. 19th century mahogany has special properties & oil density giving it a lustrous sheen modern "mahogany" can't imitate. The Mahogany trade flourished in major cities with rosewood being the only other imported wood demanding a higher price. Caribbean mahogany was farmed to near extinction levels and is thankfully protected today.
This stand is finished on all four sides and is in a great old surface. Exceptionally well done and proportioned this stand has fully formed classical columns and a very crisp balanced gadrooned edge. The drawer faces are molded with the original glass pulls. The carved pedestal base is an absolute 10/10. The base features tight ringlet turnings transferring to a heavily carved masterfully done acanthus leaf base with bead carvings and a surrounding acanthus base medallion. The carved griffin paw feet are exceptionally well executed on the top tier of the practice. This stand is 22" wide x 16" deep x 28" tall.
