Red Lacquer Chinoiserie Table

Red Lacquer Chinoiserie TableA very decorative Chinoiserie tripod table, painted with Chinese pagodas and gardens English, 19th century. Redecorated. Why we like it A very chic small table to add a playful accent to an eclectic interior. Oriental lacquer was highly prized in Europe and had been used in furniture making since the 17th century. This fashion saw a surge in popularity in the early 19th century England, promoted by the newly built Brighton Pavilion, fashionably

and in Mallett

An elegant late George III – early Regency period breakfast table

The sofa is embellished in the George IV 'antique manner'

Best reeded legs that we have ever seen on a regency piece

We love the virtuosic quality of its carving
