- Lot Description
ca. 1780-1800, with finely figured mahogany D-shaped top with triple line inlay, the inlaid skirt centering a square lightwood framed panel with lightwood and darkwood star inlay, the legs with lightwood inset patera over line and bellflower chain, inlaid tapered legs set on brass casters, 29-1/4 x 36 x 17-3/4 in.
Note: As the accompanying Bivins discussion indicates, "the variegated star found on the center tablet is a familiar Charleston motif, frequently seen on rosettes and prospect doors, and found on a card table signed by E.G. Sass, the son of one of the first German cabinetmakers to advertise in Charleston after the Revolution, and dated 1811." Bivins goes on to note that "this table falls within the mainstream of neoclassical Charleston card tables and is an excellent example of the confluence of stylistic influences from both the Scottish and German schools of cabinetmaking."Condition
very good structural condition, refinished, one 1 x 3 in. veneer patch at top, hinges replaced, small repair at one knuckle of gate mechanism, typical cracks and checking to skirt veneers, other typical scattered veneer and inlay repairs
