Description
An Early 19th Century Georgian Mahogany Baby Pembroke Table Drop leaf two flap top above two drawers to front and two faux drawers on the reverse, both with inlaid decoration and raised on four elegant turned legs and four baby castors Pembroke tables became one of the most popular pieces of furniture around the mid-18th century due to their versatility.
George Hepplewhite (one of the ‘big three’ furniture makers in the 18th century) actually described Pembroke tables as the most useful of tables and many references can be found to them in the literature of the time with people such as Jane Austen even describing them being used for dining at, or having papers kept in them to use them as a writing table and there is even reference to them in other places as being used for ladies to do their embroidery at.
This table is actually referred to as a “Baby Pembroke” table and this is due to the fact it is of course smaller in proportion than its full size siblings.
These are sought after tables which are so incredibly functional and suit such a huge variety of spaces and uses around the home and this is a particularly attractive and good quality example of its type.
