An exceptional and very fine late 19th century to early 20th century English Edwardian period mahogany and marquetry oval two-tier 'etagere' or table, in the manner of Edwards & Roberts, circa 1890. Both oval trays feature a central sunburst motif inlay, encircled by further marquetry inlay depicting flowers and stems, incorporating satinwood, olivewood, and walnut. The quality of craftsmanship and marquetry inlay with which this scene has been created is outstanding and rarely seen. The perimeter of the trays is adorned with an inlaid mahogany single-piece banded gallery. Masterfully inlaid with Sheraton influences, this etagere has an elegant, refined look. It is raised on elegant square-section inlaid tapering outswept legs. It is in lovely original condition with exceptional marquetry, depth of color, and patination.
