Mid-20th-century Mahogany Console Table By Arthur Brett & Sons

A Mid-20th-Century Mahogany Inlaid Console Table by Arthur Brett & Sons

An elegant late 20th-century console table by Arthur Brett & Sons. This refined piece combines classic English design with excellent modern cabinetmaking. Crafted from richly toned figured mahogany with inlay on the shaped top. The console features a superb, finely finished shaped top surface above three drawers—a smoothly gliding center drawer flanked by two dummy drawers—all fitted with brass accent handles. It stands on slender, tapered legs, lending it a crisp, tailored look and highlighting the quality of its construction.
Although this is not the type of piece I usually offer, I was particularly struck by the level of craftsmanship, the precision of the inlay, and its strong decorative presence. I acquired this console from a large private estate in Surrey.
This is a versatile, timeless console, ideal for an entryway, living room, dining room, or study. Elegant yet practical, it is designed to be both used and admired, and to bring joy for many years to come.
