The china-table is richly carved in the Chippendale manner derived from a tea-table presented to the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1937 by Mr. Browett of Birmingham and illustrated in R. Edwards, Georgian Furniture, rev.ed., 1951, fig. 20. The latter provided the pattern for this table's trellis-fretted frieze, as well as the legs' ribbon-twined brackets and flowered-acanthus. Its fretted tray pattern featured on a china/tea table from the Percival D. Griffiths collection that was presented to the Museum in 1938, while its dentilled feet appear on another tea-table presented in 1950 (Edwards, ibid., figs. 17 and 22).
