Lot Essay

It is probable that the present table was one of the many examples made to, or after Pugin's designs for Adare Manor by J.G. Crace.
Cf: Christie's, Adare Manor, 9th June 1982, lot 799, et seq. See also a washstand of similar design, illustrated Jeremy Cooper, Victorian and Edwardian Interiors, London, 1987, p.49, no.96
