George III English or Irish Small 18th Century Walnut Game Table

England Ca. 1750

The cabriole legs have C scrolls at the knees and the front leg has a stylized carved shell with pendant husk carving ending in turned platform pad feet. The frieze contains two swing out pie section drawers that pivot from one side.
