The elegant herm-tapered and plinth-supported legs enriched with antique flutes on this table were popularised by Thomas Chippendale in his Gentleman and Cabinet-Makers Director (3rd ed., 1762, pl. 17). With its inclusion of a gothic-fretted stretcher, it also relates to a table pattern attributed to Chippendale and issued by A Society of Upholsterers in Household Furniture in genteel Taste for the Year 1760 (pl. 35).
The underside of this table is branded with the three Murray mullets, which may have been used as an identifying device for items at Kenwood House, London, and interestingly the Scone Palace Archive records that Thomas Chippendale supplied looking-glass plates for William Murray, 1st Earl of Mansfield at Kenwood House in 1769 (the frames were made by William France to Robert Adam's design, see C. Gilbert, The Life and Work of Thomas Chippendale, London, 1978, Vol. I, p. 256).
