This set of tables is of unusual design with three tiers of baluster stretchers uniting the legs, it is based on a similar set at Leighton Hall, Lancashire, a house owned by Richard Gillow and containing several pieces of furniture which can be assigned to his company Gillows of Lancaster (See: Ralph Edwards, The Shorter Dictionary of English Furniture, Country Life, 1983, London, p.575, fig.2.1)
