Description:
This is a fine quality antique English Victorian solid mahogany & brass metamorphic adjustable music stand / side tripod table, with a Swann & Millican mechanism, circa 1860, in excellent original condition. The music stand can be configured either as a circular side table, or as a duet music stand. When configured as a side table, the stand features a moulded circular top. Turning the top in an anti-clockwise direction causes the top to gradually raise and transform into a music stand. The more the top is spun, the more pronounced this configuration becomes and the higher it raises. When configured as a music stand, the stand boasts a duet arrangement, with two back-to-back bookrests. The top is raised on a central ring turned column and supported by shaped supports, which also form part of the mechanism. The supports also display a brass stamp with the inscription “Swann and Millican Scroll Band Movement Patent.” The stand rests on a splayed tripod scribe carved base, terminating on its original scroll feet.
The music stand exhibits a rich dark brown colour. As it boasts the original polish, it has a fantastic colour and patination this can only be achieved through age and years of care and cleaning it has received.
This music stand would complement any home, especially the office or study. It would certainly grace any home and is a great investment as it is extremely functional. So, don’t miss out on your chance to own a lovely piece of antique furniture.
