A very fine example remaining in excellent original condition, the table form is closely associated with a small grouping of furniture from the coastal North Carolina, particularly Edenton. The work center is distinct for its use of a dovetailed box instead of a birdcage with pillars as the rotating and tilting functionary, a technique founded in British furniture but most often employed in American furniture of coastal North Carolina, specifically Chowan County. Further related are the uses of a large turned boss rather than the more typical tri-form iron bracket beneath the pedestal to secure the dovetailed legs to the base as well as the scrolled volute leg returns at the juncture of the leg and pedestal. This is only hinted at in the present example, the soft roundel left unembellished as a simple scroll along the interior edge of each leg. Like most of the tables identified from this work center, the top is a thick and broad beautifully grained solid plank of mahogany, affixed to the dovetailed mahogany box on a pair of blunt ended cleats with original screws flanking projecting dowels from the box. The pedestal is striking for its compressed urn and tight ring turnings beneath an elongated shaft. The legs have a soft and highly effective profile, the cabriole flowing into a rounded foot over thin pads of the solid. The table is preserved in outstanding condition retaining its original iron tombstone latch and brass catch with its original hand filed steel screws, likewise with original unmoved cleats and most original screws. The large turned boss remains affixed with its original iron sprig nails. It remains a powerful presentation piece for the serious collector of American furniture of the period.
