The cabinet-maker, T. Clifford, is listed as having worked in Stockholm during the 1860s (see T. Sylven, Mstarnas Mbler, Stockholmsarbeten 1700-1850, Stockholm, 1996, p. 81.). An almost identical table to the present example, apparently unsigned, is illustrated in C. Payne, 19th Century European Furniture, Woodbridge, 1981, p. 493.
