“Miniature” walnut gate-leg drop-leaf table.  The oval top with bull nose edge and two drop leaves which, when raised form the oval top.  The frieze contains a single full-depth drawer with brass pull, above a shaped apron and all supported on baluster turned legs united by box stretchers and standing on small ball feet.  

I put the word “miniature” in quotes as it is not what we all normally think of as a 'miniature'. It is a larger size than most, but as with so many good miniatures, the quality is superb. It is perfectly drawn. To add to it, it has a wonderful dry finish; the kind one loves seeing and so rarely does today.

English – Circa 1890-1910

Height – 15 ¾”  

Top:  21 x 9 ½” with leaves down;
