Note du spécialiste

The design of this table is taken from plate 14 of Thomas King's The Modern Style of Cabinet Work Exemplified, first published in 1829. Ceylonese examples typically feature a specimen wood top. For a very similar example, also featuring a later marble top, see Amin Jaffer Furniture From British India and Ceylon, V&A publications, 2001, page 372, fig. 181.
