Next Piece

18th Century Queen Anne Mahogany Tray Top Tea Table

From any angle just a lovely table. Though it looks very English in form, I believe it is Continental, possibly Dutch. Graceful cabriole legs, a single drawer with the original brass, scalloped frieze and a raised edge with peaked corners.
