The richly-mosaiced games-table embellished with an heraldic 'boar' crest, is designed in the Elizabethan 'Old English' fashion popularised by the architect Bruce Talbert (d. 1881), who provided designs for leading firms such as Gillows or Holland and Sons, and was the author of Gothic Forms Applied to Furniture, Metal Work and Decoration for Domestic Purposes, 1868.
