Piecrust Tea Table
Walnut. Diameter 33"
|
| Tilt top table design reached its pinnacle with the Philadelphia
Chippendale piecrust tables built around 1760-1780. This Queen Anne
style reproduction is made as the originals were, with the center scooped
out of a solid top, leaving the raised molding. The top is mounted
on a "bird cage" which allows it to rotate on the pedestal as well as tilt
upright. The legs are dovetailed into the pedestal. Also available
with carved claw and ball legs. |
