Lot Essay

Whilst we have not been able to find record of this table in the Bulstrode Park sale catalogues its proximity in design, construction and age to that of lot 55 would suggest that it was almost certainly produced by the same workshop and would most probably have then made its way to Pitshill, by the same route, subsequently being moved to Dunecht by the Hon. Charles Pearson after 1997.

Please see lot 55 for a note relating to provenance.
