A rare Anglo-Chinese hardwood picnic table

A rare Anglo-Chinese hardwood picnic table. This portable table separates into three sections, with a securing boss. The circular top is inlaid with six rouge marble segments centred on a roundel. Each panel is framed in hardwood inlaid in brass with delicate leafy scrolls. The six reeded legs fold flat and are centred on a carved knot boss when opened. They, in turn, slot into a further base joined by serpentine stretchers and raised on six scroll feet which hide the original English castors. Chinese, circa 1840.

Estimate:£24,000
