This table form with double mirrors was introduced in the 1770s and named a 'Rudd' table after Margaret Caroline Rudd (d. 1779), who may have been related to the architect Jean Baptiste Rudd (see The Dictionary of English Furniture Makers 1660-1840, Leeds, 1984, p. 770 and Country Life, 2 June 1966, p. 1409). A 'Rudd's Table' pattern was illustrated in Messrs A. Hepplewhite & Co.'s The Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer's Guide, 1788, pl. 79).
