A beautiful English bookstand dating from the early 19th century, featuring an elegant turned spindle gallery above a single long drawer. The top has alternated bands of rosewood and satinwood, creating a striking decorative contrast.
Raised on turned feet, the drawer retains its original turned wooden knobs and a shaped escutcheon. The beautiful proportions, fine craftsmanship and excellent patina make this a particularly attractive example of English Regency furniture.
