The table has its serpentined trusses terminating in Bacchic palm-wrapped lion paws, while palms issuing from its flowered volutes frame ring-tamed lion masks. It recalls the Pantheon's Tomb of Agrippa and marble antiquities illustrated in C. H. Tatham's, Etchings of Ancient Ornamental Architecture, 1799, which in turn influenced patterns in T. Hope's, Household Furniture and Interior Decoration, 1807; and G. Smith's, Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer's Guide, 1808. A related marble-topped table is in the Dining-Room at Port Lympne, Kent (P. Stansky, Sassoon: The Worlds of Philip and Sybil, New Haven and London, 2003, p. 149, fig. 41).
