A charming early 19th century mahogany two-tier reading table of elegant and practical design, dating to circa 1820. The rectangular top features a raised three-quarter gallery, with a ratcheted adjustable slope allowing it to be used as a reading or writing surface.

The table is supported on finely turned legs, united by a lower tier shelf providing useful additional storage. The legs terminate in original brass caps and castors, allowing for ease of movement.

Constructed in richly figured mahogany, the piece displays a warm colour and pleasing patina throughout, consistent with its age. The proportions are particularly attractive, making it a versatile piece suitable as a reading table, occasional table, or side table.

A functional and decorative antique, ideal for both traditional and modern interiors.
