Description
A George III Mahogany Tilt-Top Tea Table
Circa 1800
Height 41 1/4 x width 26 1/2 x depth 24 inches. 
Property from a Private Collector, Lincolnwood, Illinois
Condition
Sturdy and usable condition, but wobbling slightly from the "birdcage." The top has a faded area at the center where an object was placed. The finish on the top of the legs and feet is heavily worn with faded, scuffed, and rubbed areas exposing the wood, especially on one foot's claws. The runners under the top are probably replaced and are attached with modern screws. The top has a small age crack at one edge and several small scratches from use and handling.
