285/12: A charming early 19th mahogany Occasional or Side Table of pretty size. The solid well-figured top has rounded corners and a double-reeded edge whilst the frieze (which is 'panelled' and polished all around, including the back) contains a single mahogany-lined drawer with its original turned mahogany handles. It is supported on slender ring-turned legs and measures 22ins x 17ins. c.1825

182/11: A very good quality early 19th century solid rosewood Canterbury or Magazine Rack in fine original condition. Rosewood was the most expensive "standard" wood used during the period, and this Canterbury illustrates what a splendid piece of furniture can be designed and made from this timber, with its "dished" divisions with shaped splats between well-turned uprights, and its good mahogany-lined frieze drawer. It is supported on elegant slender turned legs which terminate in the orginal brass castors. c.1820
