18th & 19th century English, European and American antique furniture & decorations

A very rare English 19th c. Hunt Table in mahogany.

This form of wine or social table was intended for after dinner drinking with the table pulled up in front of a fire and the decanter being passed on a pivotal coaster or chariot.

Also, used after a mornings Fox Hunting , when the table could be brought out in front of a roaring fire and the drinks chariot could be slid around the table on its track, holding a warming beverage.

The table closed serves as a very well proportioned serving table.

These such tables are extremely rare, though the term Hunt Table is quite common.
