Regency Antique Rosewood Quartetto Nest Of 4 Coffee Tables

A very fine quality Regency period rosewood Quartetto Nest of Four Coffee Tables, having superbly figured oblong tops with brass strung decoration raised on elegant turned supports united by concave stretchers.

Nests of coffee tables were made from the early 19th century and continue to be made to this day.

By far the most common antique nests of tables that are found however are late 19th, or even early 20th century examples.

Nests of tables manufactured in the early 19th century versions are of course much rarer, and normally of superior quality, therefore making them much more sought after.

They were of course manufactured in many different types of wood. These ones have been constructed using high grade and well figured rosewood which would have been incredibly expensive and only just starting to become available in the British market place at this time.

The brass inlaid stringing not just around the edges, but also in the top of each concave stretcher is also a smart, decorative and unusual feature and yet another sign of the overall quality and craftsmanship on show.

The versatility which is offered with the varying sizes of tables is of course most useful indeed and these tables are incredibly functional.
