FINE REGENCY CALAMANDER GAMES TABLE

England, c1825


 

 

 

    

 

 

A highly figured rectangular fold-over top with rounded corners over a chamfered shaft with four radiating scrolls,

on a molded plinth base with disc feet, the slightly faded top opening to a fully vibrant inner calamander surface with dramatic light-dark striation

 

Condition: With original surfaces; light surface scratching; structurally very sound.

 

Note: Calamander ranks only behind satinwood as being one of the most desirable and expensive woods.  Its drama comes from its bold

figuration from almost black to a pale yellow.  It was used for veneer during the Regency period on only the most expensive pieces.
