About the Item
A Highly Important Diminutive 17th Century William and Mary Silver Table, circa 1670-1690. England
Metropolitan Museum of Art;
A fine and exceptionally rare Charles II period oak silver table, featuring a rectangular top with a molded edge above a shaped apron, raised on finely turned legs united by a shaped X-stretcher.
The deep, patina suggests the table remains untouched.
