The rear leg having a hinged gate action to support the fold over tops when opened. The top fitted with brass hinges opening to reveal a tea table and a card table with circular dished candle-stick rests to the corners and oval dished ‘guinea wells’ for holding coins or gambling chips. In excellent original condition , retaining the original polished surface which has achieved a superb rich colour and patina. Minor historic marks and scratches to the top surface, commensurate with age, use and purpose. A classic design mid-Georgian period table of practical proportions in fine and usable condition. This card table from the mid 18th century would make a particularly nice games table in a games room, but also would work well just used as side, tea or console table. Circa 1740.
