<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hallingdalen, post: 11848483, member: 93477&quot;]Updated view: I would not confidently attribute the table as British. While the construction (including a veenered mahogny top, hand-fitted blocks, and a non-standardized underside) and deep hand-carved ornamentation point to an early 19th-century date (ca. 1820–1840). The presence of irregular, likely pre-industrial nails further supports an early, workshop-based production.</p><p><br /></p><p>English Regency/William IV tables feature veneered surfaces, however the four-legged pedestal base and heavier, more plastic carving differ from the typically more restrained English examples, which are often tripod-based. It is therefore likely best described as a centre table, ca. 1820–1840, in the William IV / late Regency style, likely of continental (Northern European) origin rather than definitively British.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
