Michaels personal view and slip of veneer " untouched colour is paramount in assesing the beauty of English- Scottish Eighteenth Century Georgian Furniture.

The tables are of a distinct design for use as sidetables - consoles, and have a tipping mechanism allowing the two tables to be used side by side as a supper table.

English- Scottish tables of this type are normally circular in shape, making this rectancular model a particularly rarity.
