Mahogany Card Table

Rhode Island, circa 1785

Constructed of choice mahogany, this table features chip carving around the edge of the top, stop-fluted tapering legs, and the rare feature of a secret drawer hidden behind the swing leg.

It remains in what appears to be its first surface and is otherwise in original condition.

Height 28 ½ inches, width 36 inches, depth 17 ¾”
