The circular top with quarter-veneered figured panels framed by kingwood strapwork and trailing flowers heightened in harewood and centred by a floral spray with chrysanthemums and lilies within a crossbanded coromandel border and walnut ground, the three-sided pedestal with marquetry panels separated by ormolu borders and green man masks, on a trefoil shaped platform with splayed legs inlaid with flower sprays within strapwork borders, centred by female ormolu masks and having inswept feet raised on brass castors. 
English, circa 1840

Richard Bridgens issued, in 1838, a design book 'Furniture with Candelabra and Interior Decoration'; the design of our table is taken directly therefrom. The design was utilised often by E. H. Baldock.
