With the slight variation of the flowerhead instead of the palmette, the central cartouche on this tea table is identical to the marquetry design on a pair of brass inlaid cabinets made by George Bullock for the 1st Marquess of Abercorn and present in the Wilkinson's Tracings (unbound number 237) illustrated on p.85 in George Bullock Cabinet Maker, published by John Murray and H. Blairman & Sons
