SWC-Chippendale Tilt-Top Table with Small Claw and Ball Feet, Newport, c. 1780

  

The country's largest collection of fine Classical & Colonial Furniture... Just steps from the RISD Museum & John Brown House. A Chippendale Mahogany Tilt-top Table w/ Small Claw and Ball Feet and Spiral Carved Column, Newport, c. This is a very beautiful table in many respects.

The top of the table itself is a beautiful slab of dense, heavy Cuban mahogany. The cleats which hold the top are shaped as many of the Newport pieces were and somewhat identifies its origin. Typical of Newport work, there is no birdcage and the block shows clearly its imprint on the bottom of the tabletop. The urn and shaft are beautifully modeled and the legs are beautifully molded, terminating in a slender claw and ball foot. Normally this leg would have terminated in a simple pad foot. All offerings are in fine condition with no major repairs or replacements unless otherwise indicated in description. Item must be insured in full.
