circa: 1820 width: 36 height: 28 length: 18 This wonderful solid mahogany antique demi-lune table was hand-crafted in Georgian England around 1820. Over the years, the antique mahogany has acquired a lovely patina that has come to enrich its wispy grain and lustrous complexion. The strikingly beautiful mahogany is thick and solid, which in part explains why this demi-lune table remains so strong after two long centuries of use. This particular antique demi-lune table displays a unique history spanning several generations of English craftsmen, as it seems clear that the table once was only a one tier flip top but that later craftsmen (most likely in the late 19th or early 20th centuries) separated the two halves of the top to create two tiers. This is evident in the hinges that remain on the table (see pictures below). The mahogany has sustained wear consistent with age, mostly in the form of a variety of stress marks, but these really contribute to the antique charm of this table. Because this is a two-tier demi-lune table, there is plenty of surface area for storing your items, and as an antique demi-lune this table would make a great side table, end table, or hall table, perfect for any situation!   « Less
