DescriptionThe Elizabethan-style trapezoidal console table has four double-baluster turned legs terminating in small bun feet and united by deeply arched and ornamented skirts and heavy molded stretchers. The small plain top is composed of a single board surrounded on three sides by wide “bread-board” edges. The skirts, which appear to be let into the tops of the legs with prominent pegs (but were actually doweled together), are ornamented with carved openwork scrolls.ProvenanceFrom 1964
