拍品專文

This serpentine silver table's overall form compares to a table formerly in the collection of William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham and thence by descent, illustrated in A Catalogue and Index of Old Furniture and Works of Decorative Art, part II, p. 303, as produced by the London dealers M. Harris and Sons in the 1920s. Another with cluster-column legs but pierced 'Gothic' elements was sold from the collection of H.J. Joel, Esq., Childwick Bury, Hertfordshire, Christie's, London, 15 May 1978, lot 89. A further comparable example is shown in situ in the Entrance Hall of Home House, Portman Square, illustrated in Dr. M. Whinney, Home House, No. 20 Portman Square, London, 1969, p.85. The table also recalls the example from Charlton Park, Kent, illustrated in H.A. Tipping, English Homes, period III, vol.I, 1922, p.385, which is now in the Gerstenfeld Collection (E.Lennox-Boyd, ed., Masterpieces of English Furniture: The Gerstenfeld Collection, London, 1998, no.19, p.201 and pl.47).
