A fine Regency mahogany breakfront serving table after the designs

A fine Regency mahogany breakfront serving table after the designs of George Smith, retaining its original serving rail. This highly interesting table is of restrained breakfront outline and of architectural inspiration. It is unusual in having a shaped under tier, the concave section in the centre designed to allow a cellaret or wine cooler to be placed between the central legs. Whilst the back legs on the piece are fluted and dealt with in the late 18th century neoclassical manner, the front legs are of faceted form with inlaid brass stringing, sometimes found on knife urns such as one in our workshop that would pair perfectly with this piece. The front legs are mounted with lion masks with ringed handles and bronzed hairy paw feet.

Estimate:£22,500
