A matched pair of original walnut occasional tables stamped and numbered by JAMES SHOOLBRED & Co. circa 1890.

These two tables are a great example of one of James Shoolbred's designs of occasional tables and as originals are quite rare and hard to come across. 

Both tables have square walnut tops with nicely matching moulded edges, each table has four tapered splayed legs which are finely pierced. 

These tables have a very useful lower tiers, which one could use for books or magazines, with all four sides having an open gothic style fret work gallery.
