Superb quality serving table very much in the Adams style.   Break fronted in shape top, with a dentil and rounded edge.  Deep apron decorated with carved patera and fluting, with a central swag design, either side of which are 2 deep concealed drawers.  Raised on 4 carved and fluted legs and standing on 4 delightful carved paw feet.

A real statement piece that would suit any grand entrance or hallway.

Later strengthening to the underside of top surface, expected very minor shrinkage between top surface planks.  Minor surface marks to top surface, but kept in as near original condition as possible, these could be re-polished if desired.  Fantastic colour and patina. See less
