18th Century English Bobbin-Turned Oak Side Table with Bronze Hardware, James II Period

Price: Price on request

A rare survivor from the late 17th to early 18th century, this English side table is a beautiful example of the robust elegance of the James II period. Crafted in solid oak with a deep, time-worn patina, the piece showcases the distinctive bobbin-turned legs, an ornamental technique popular in Restoration-era furniture, prized for its rhythmic, sculptural quality.

The rectangular top rests above a single drawer, fitted with finely cast bronze pulls that echo the restrained opulence of the age. Horizontal stretchers connect the legs, reinforcing the structure while adding a sense of architectural balance. The craftsmanship is honest and enduring, with subtle irregularities that speak to its hand-made origins.

Several old restorations are visible upon close inspection—testament to its long life and the care it has received over centuries. These interventions have preserved its integrity without compromising its historical character.
This table is not merely functional; it is a piece of English design history. Ideal for collectors, connoisseurs of early furniture, or interiors that embrace patina and provenance.
