專家說明

A pier table with a similar radially veneered satinwood top and scalloped burr-yewwood banding by John Wisdom of Dublin, circa 1790, was supplied to Thomas Cobbe for Newbridge House, County Dublin (The Knight of Glin and J. Peill, Irish Furniture, London, 2007, p.167, pl. 228.). Interestingly, yewwood was a leitmotif of the London cabinet-makers, Mayhew and Ince, whose pupil William Moore left London to set up his own business in Dublin.
