About this Item

Cape stinkwood pedestal table, 19th century
74cm high, 92cm wide, 58cm deep

Notes

Most pedestal tables were made in the 19th century as can be seen by their turned columns and tripod feet. This type of table design was popularised in England by Thomas Chippendale but was never very popular at the Cape, making this a rare example. It would have been used as an occasional, candle or bedside table.
