This material includes, among other things, ivory, tortoiseshell, crocodile skin, rhinoceros horn, whalebone certain species of coral, and Brazilian rosewood. You should check the relevant customs laws and regulations before bidding on any lot containing wildlife material if you plan to import the lot into another country. Several countries refuse to allow you to import property containing these materials, and some other countries require a licence from the relevant regulatory agencies in the countries of exportation as well as importation. In some cases, the lot can only be shipped with an independent scientific confirmation of species and/or age, and you will need to obtain these at your own cost.

The present side table is based on a form which has detachable legs, for use as a demountable table. Tables of this type were made to be easily disassembled to facilitate transport. However, there are several known examples with fixed legs, in which the legs have been carved to imitate their detachable counterparts. This fascination with artifice was in fashion during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and can be seen in exquisite examples found in the decorative arts.

An eighteenth-century square fixed-leg “demountable” table of similar proportions, and also reduced in height, was sold at Christie’s New York, 7-24 July 2020, lot 81.
