The table frame, elegantly serpentine and hollowed in the Louis Quinze fashion introduced around 1770, relates to that of a card-table offered at Christie's London, 12 November 1998, lot 463. Another side table of slightly smaller dimension but with quite similar proportions and serpentine form was offered Sotheby's London, 15 and 22 February 1991, lot 247. A card table of similar profile in the Noel Terry Collection, Fairfax House, York is illustrated in P. Brown, The Noel Terry Collection of Furniture and Clocks, York, 1987, p.114, no.112.
