This is a really attractive little tripod table, which as suggested in the item above is constructed from solid yew wood, something which is extremely rare. Certainly there is absolutely no doubt whatsoever that it is one for the purists, the connoisseur, the collector, or actually just anybody who has any kind of affinity for beautiful 18th century furniture at all.

It has aged beautifully and is relatively untouched, meaning that the yew wood itself retains a lovely silky, mellow, colour and patina. The three plank top has obtained a little shrinkage over the years and there are a couple of very small historic repairs, but these add to the charm rather than detract from the piece in any way whatsoever.

It is extremely unusual to find one of these little tables constructed from yew wood and remaining in such lovely honest condition.

from a practical perspective it is of course still extremely functional, the perfect little size to use in a whole variety of spaces around the home.

This is a personal favourite of ours and we have absolutely no doubt whatsoever that it will be off to a good home very soon where it will be loved, cherished and adored for many years to come yet.

Circa 1750.
