The arms are those of Vereker impaling O'Grady for John, 3rd Viscount Gort and his wife Maria (d. 1854), daughter of the 1st Viscount Guillamore, whom he married in 1814. Viscount Gort was Tory M.P. for Limerick from 1817-20, later becoming Mayor of Limerick in 1831. The pair to this table, identical but for a slightly different inlaid border to its specimen marble top and retaining the lower sections to the feet, was sold from Nantlys, Wales, Christie's Gyrn Castle house sale, 18 July 2006, lot 525 (£33,600).
