Object Description
An Attractive And Very Good Quality Mid 19th Century
Mahogany Miniature Table Having Well Figured Circular
Tilting Top Raised On Elegant Turned Column Terminating
On Tripod Legs
(Almost certainly made as a travelling salesman’s sample piece
of furniture which would have been used to display to potential
customers what could be produced on a larger scale back at the
workshops and take orders from this is in excellent condition
and very well made. It bears the stamp of a ” B. Sheperd” whom
unfortunately there appears to be little reference to in historical
publications. Just about tall enough to be used alongside a chair
this beautiful and collectible piece still has a practical and functional
purpose in and around the modern day home.)
