george iii mahogany snap top occasional table

Circa 1770, George III mahogany snap top occasional table. The circular top has wonderful figuring in the centre. At the back is the original spring loaded brass and steel clasp. Beneath this is a block which forms the top section of the bird cage action. This sits on a stylish cannon barrel upright terminating on four elegant cabriole legs with stylish pad feet on brass and wooden castors. The castors are unusual, as they are contained in a brass bezel which allows a rotation within a defined area. Wonderful colour and patination.

Georgian Antiques

Georgian Antiques was founded in 1978 by John Dixon's brother Padriac in a small shop at Jocks Lodge, Meadowbank in Edinburgh, with John joining the business after finishing college in 1981. The business grew so rapidly, they couldn't keep up with their inventory needs. Their goal has been to create a one-stop-shop where designers can complete an entire project from antique lighting to antique furniture to accessories. Scotland's largest antiques warehouse is located in a converted whiskey bond in historic Leith Edinburgh. With 50,000sq ft over five floors we offer a wide range of quality Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian furniture, as well as continental and small decorative items. Our stock is constantly changing.
