George III Mahogany Circular Dining Table

SOLD - A George III Mahogany Circular Dining Table

Height: 30" / 76cm
Diameter: 7 feet / 213cm

This is an early example of a circular dining table, the 'gun-barrel' column supported on four splayed and reeded legs which terminate in original brass box castors.

The top, which again as an early table, does not have a frieze and is the most wonderful golden colour and a very good size.

The photograph does not do justice to the proportions of this table which are superb. The spread of the legs is just the correct amount less than the diameter of the top giving the look of the table a boldness and grandeur sadly lacking from most other tables.

English, Circa 1795
