Extremely Rare and Handsome Piece of North Country English Furniture with the Strength of Design and Quality of Timber suggesting a Major Exponent of Great Country House Furnishings.
Superb Mahogany with Untouched Natural Patina this table has the most unusual proportions - being very slim in depth whilst quite large in length and still retaining perfect balance.
Tulipwood Bandings to the top and unusually to the full height of the legs plus a strong fluting to the frieze make this an exceptional piece.
