  If you want the best then they do not come much better than this as this really is a superb example of a very high end genuine antique English William IV period Card Table which may also be used as a Side Table or Hall table / Entrance Vestibule Table.

  The rectangular top section has curved front corners and swivels then folds over so as to rest on the frieze or apron section which also provides storage for cards and other games. The inner Rosewood surface has a circular inset woven cloth playing surface.

  The slightly recessed apron is vertical and flat however the bottom edge is of serpentine or undulating formation and is embellished with an applied raised central carving of apposed French ‘C’ shaped scrolls which then floe out along the bottom edge in both directions and around both sides with raised corner carvings.

  The central column is extremely well turned from solid Rosewood and is highly profiled and beautifully carved. Below the column is a cylindrical upright base from which four Shaped and tapered cabriole legs flow and these are embellished with raised carvings on the top of the knees and lower ‘C’ shaped scrolls terminate in upward scrolled carved toes. Beneath are bold and beautifully carved feet with the original all brass castor assemblies beneath.
