About the Item

A very rare mid-18th century George II period country house hunt table, or dining table for 6 people, on very well-drawn straight cabriole legs, with longitudinal leaves supported on twin gate legs. English, circa 1750. Why we like it This very smart table is the epitome of the great Georgian design combined with excellent mid-18th century joinery and craftsmanship. Made of extremely dense and beautiful timber, this table is chunky and robust, exuding quality and displaying and outstanding original colour and natural patina, acquired over centuries of use and loving care. Notably, the top and drop leaves are made of solid single planks of timber of a rare, monumental girth. This useful and versatile will look perfect in a hallway of a country home, or can make for a generous, sociable oval dining room table for 6–8 persons. Popular at the time as they could be easily set aside to make space for entertaining, or carried outside to host drinks after a hunt.

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...
