Description
Fine antique English mahogany urn table/ kettle stand of very good colour and patination in its original state. Ca 1760.
The octagonal top with a raised border supported on a well drawn tripod base.
Few of these small and sophisticated pieces of furniture have survived due to the extreme fragility of this design. Furthermore relatively few were originally made. A high level of skills was required by a master cabinetmaker to construct this elegant table.
This antique tripod table is very versatile and can be used as a lamp table or small occasional table.
H: 56 cm.
W: 28 cm.
D: 28 cm.
Ref: BHA984
A related kettle stand but with round top and with restoration was sold at Christies lot 49, 18th June 2008, @ £10,000.
