The mahogany top, which has faded and developed a rich patination, sits above a single drawer decorated with a cross-hatched trellis design on the front and sides.

The top supported on the most superbly carved and shaped apron with cabochons and foliage set against an incised trellis pattern background. The carving, which is particularly crisp, is extremely well patinated which adds to its three dimensional appearance.

The finely proportioned cabriole legs have acanthus leaf decoration to the knees and carved lions paw feet. Unusually, except on the best pieces, the back legs are treated in the same manner as the front legs.

English, Circa 1750

Reference.
A clothes press, illustrated in the Dictionary of English Furniture and now at the Victoria & Albert Museum has been attributed to Giles Grendey. This attribution has been made based on the serpentine fielded panels in the doors which are regarded as a particular motif used by Grendey.
This motif may be seen on two known pieces by Grendey, (both bear the maker's label) and one of the cabinets also has a carved apron, similar in feeling and style to the apron on this table.
The clothes press in the Victoria & Albert Museum has a carved stand which not only employs all the same motifs as this table, but on close examination of the carving it is clear that they are by the same hand.
