“Lazy Susan” Almost certainly Made By Johnson, Jupe & Company of London
-
Description
The origin of the term “Lazy Susan” is unknown although the invention of the object has often, probably erroneously, been attributed to Thomas Jefferson. Interesting as that may be it does seem somewhat improbable as revolving “dumb-waiters” are known from much earlier period.
This revolving example, in the finest quality mahogany, is constructed in an exceptional manner and was some of the techniques the furniture partnership Johnson, Jupe and Company used in their innovative circular dining tables.
We have photographed the piece with three full size dining plates to provide a representation of the generous size.
A really nice and practical piece for any serious or cocktail party. -
