Literature:
A sidetable at Corsham Court and attributed to Thomas Chippendale is Illustrated in 'Thomas Chippendale' by Oliver Bracket and has very similar fretwork down the legs and carved 'C' scrolls. Page 207.
Another table with the same fretwork legs is in the Untermeyer Collection fig 258.

Description / Expertise
The carved mahogany sidetable retains its original 'Grand Tour' specimen marble top and has a pierced fretwork frieze above four square legs which are chamfered on the back and carved with matching blind fretwork and carved 'C' scroll brackets.
The base is likely to have been made specially to display the Italian specimen marble-inlaid slab top.
