Lot Essay

A table of this form was formerly at Charlton Park, Kent, and possibly supplied to Sir Thomas Wilson, 6th Bt. (1726-98). It was sold by his descendent, Sir Spencer Maryon-Wilson, 11th Bt., in these Rooms, 8 May 1930 and is now in the Gerstenfeld Collection (E. Lennox-Boyd, ed., Masterpieces of English Furniture: The Gerstenfeld Collection, London, 1998, no. 19, p. 201 & pl.47 [illustration from H. A. Tipping, English Homes, Period III, vol. I, 1922, p. 385]). Another, lacking pierced gallery is at Audley End, illustrated in H. A. Tipping, English Homes, Period III, vol. II, p. 262, fig. 330.
