1750 Historic Chippendale Antique Federal Furniture Mahogany Tilt Top Tea Table

  
Colonial Federal Period Mahogany Tilt Top Tea/Side Table. Entire piece is solid mahogany, no veneers.

The top is slightly cupped just as you would expect with an original single plank top, with age related shrinkage. Beautiful hand turned ring pedestal. Legs terminate in classic snake head feet. Original brass latch, works excellently.

Oxidation under the top is superb. I restored this incredible table to full glory/museum quality. The tilt top latch was reset. The base for the top was restored to secure it to the pedestal.

The gorgeous solid mahogany wood is showcased by my many coats of hand rubbed finish which achieved spectacular results. Outstanding tight & rich graining throughout this entire piece, likely the highly prized & virtually extinct Cuban Mahogany. Legs are dovetailed(known as sliding dovetails)into the pedestal.

Iron brace at pedestal base. Excellent hand carved detailing at the bottom edge of the pedestal. Table stands solid true, the top is stable when in the vertical position. Gorgeous in any home or office.

Sure to please the most discriminating clients. High to top of table in vertical/upright position... High to top of table in horizontal position...

Support for top 6 1/4 x 6 1/4. I will shrink wrap this and help you load it at no charge.
