Lot 807: * A mahogany headboard in the manner of Berkey Gay

A mahogany headboard in the manner of Berkey Gay, featuring the classic reddish-brown tone characteristic of quality timber. The architectural design is defined by a central top panel embellished with intricate, swirling figural marquetry and a gilded festoon-style frieze. This central section is flanked by two substantial turned posts, each terminating in a polished ball finial. The lower portion of the headboard consists of a wide, solid mahogany panel with a deep grain, providing a stately and traditional aesthetic consistent with early 20th-century American revivalist furniture. Dimensions: 109cm (h) x 163cm (w).
