Note: The card tables offered here feature what is commonly referred to as a "pillar and claw" base—a popular Regency-inspired design attribute among Baltimore cabinetmakers during the 1820s. The base of these tables relate closely to a drum table illustrated in Weidman, Classical Maryland, fig. 156, showing similar spiky reeding and stacked rings within the base motif.
