It should be noted that the table is in the most fabulous condition, of very good coloured has rich age patinated surfaces throughout.

They have remained fashionable to the present day, however, the golden age for this model is from 1750-1770 when some of the very finest examples were commissioned by cabinet makers such as Thomas Chippendale and Henry Hill.
