Fine Queen Anne Mahogany Slipper-Foot Tea Table having convex tray moldings, a convex molded apron with shaped knee return brackets continuing to squared cabriole legs of the most elegant design ending in slipper feet.
Goddard-Townsend School, Newport, Rhode Island, circa 1740-1760.
The highly successful execution of the cabriole legs, the delicate knee returns that provide a smooth transition from the apron to the legs, and the pleasant nut-brown patina all combine to make this one of the most pleasing examples of the slipper foot form we have seen.
Reference: Closely related tables from this same group appear in 'The Magazine Antiques', August 1961, page 88, and April 1993, page 509.
Height 25-3/4", top size: 19-7/8' X 31', overall size: 21-1/2 'X 32-1/2 '.
