A GEORGE II STYLE GILTWOOD SIDE TABLE

The shaped rectangular top painted to simulate verde antico above a leaf-moulded and fluted frieze centred by a lion's mask issuing laurel-swags on imbricated, acanthus and entrelac carved scrolling legs
34½ in. (88 cm.) high; 98 in. (249 cm.) wide; 40 in. (102 cm.) deep

Almost certainly Sir John Frecheville Ramsden, 6th Bt. (1877-1958), Bulstrode Park, Buckinghamshire.
Sir Colville Herbert Sanford Barclay, 14th Bt. (1913-2010), Pitshill, West Sussex.
The Hon. Charles Anthony Pearson, by whom purchased with Pitshill, West West Sussex, 1997 and subsequently at Dunecht House, Aberdeenshire.

Specialist note

Whilst we have not been able to find record of this table in the Bulstrode Park sale catalogues its proximity in design, construction and age to that of lot 55 would suggest that it was almost certainly produced by the same workshop and would most probably have then made its way to Pitshill, by the same route, subsequently being moved to Dunecht by the Hon. Charles Pearson after 1997.

Please see lot 55 for a note relating to provenance.
