British Colonial Rosewood Chess Table

Late 19th century

SGD 4,200

An attractive British colonial chess table made of rosewood. The square moulded top has a striking satinwood and rosewood playing surface within a satinwood border, ideal for a game of chess. The apron features a drawer on opposite sides, each with a nice brass pull. The table is raised on a single baluster with acanthus carving and terminating to a tripod base with double scroll legs.

The table is in good condition and has been lovingly restored and finished to its former glory using a traditional form of French polishing and waxing. The Indian rosewood that this piece has been made of has a naturally occurring dark shade with a striking grain giving sharply defined contrast to the satinwood inlay work.
