Specialist note

A design for this table exists in the Gillows's Estimate Sketch Books (344/99, no. 1877); the table was executed in 1804 for George Scott Elliott of Woodslee near Longtown. Gillows frequently re-issued fashionable designs across a number of years, and the design for Elliott appears to be the first of this pattern.
