About the Item

An exquisite 18th century George II kettle stand or wine table in the Chippendale 'French' taste. England, circa 1760. Why We Like It We love its superbly drawn outline and the exquisitely carved detail; the mellow, honey colour is most excellent. History Tripod tables and kettle stands were primarily made for holding tea and coffee paraphernalia. Tea had been introduced into this country, from Holland, in the early 17th century and in spite of the high prices and heavy duty imposed, it gradually became a fashionable drink and tea-drinking a fashionable pastime. Towards the middle of the 18th century, there was a shift from the former fashion of drinking in tea gardens to drinking at home. Consequently, cabinet-makers turned their attention to the making of suitable ornamental tables. William Ince and John Mayhew illustrated designs for 'Tea Kettle Stands' in their The Universal System of Household Furniture, 1762, as did Thomas Chippendale in his The Gentleman and Cabinet-Maker's Director, London, 3rd ed., 1762, p. LV.

18th Century George III Spider Leg Table Circa 1780
By Thomas Chippendale
Located in Richmond, London
A rare 18th century George III period mahogany 'Spider Leg' side table or drop-leaf table, in the manner of ‘The Dumfries House Cabinet-Maker’. English or Scottish, circa 1780. A highly desirable and sought after model. Why we like it We love the elegant simplicity of this table, the unusual thinness of its components, which lend this design a very delicate look. A number of related side tables in mahogany, attributed to ‘The Dumfries House Cabinet-Maker’, possibly Thomas Chippendale, was supplied circa 1760 to Lord Dumfries at Dumfries House, Scotland (illustrated). A further related table, distinguished by the superb quality of construction, is at Fenton House (NT 1448858). Thomas Chippendale supplied ‘Two neat Mahogany Spider leg Tables...
