George III Mahogany Triple Top Irish Game/Tea Table Ireland
Ca. 1740
A very fine multi-purpose table including its use as a desk. Use it as a small console table, a tea table, or a game table. Made of dense mahogany with a brilliantly figured top leaf. The demi-lune shape is less common than most others, the size
is smaller than most and very few of these were made compared to the great numbers of the standard 36" wide double top card tables. For a nearly identical example see Kirk's "American Furniture and the British Tradition" plate #1329.
Price
$17,000
Condition
Very good plus condition. Professional repairs to the top of the front leg and consolidation for the normal stresses and shrinkage of the wood from age. Stable crack to the rear molding that is only seen when the back of the table is viewed
