Y A GEORGE III SABICU, MAHOGANY AND MARQUETRY OCTAGONAL TRIPOD TABLE IN THE MANNER OF HENRY HILL OF MARLBOROUGH, CIRCA 1770 69cm high, 64cm diameter For examples of related floral and c scroll scalloped cartouche marquetry attributed to Henry Hill of Marlborough see Lucy Wood, The Lady Lever Art Gallery Catalogue of Commodes, figs. 53-55, reflecting Henry Hill's German connections. For a related George III sabicu and marquetry table, attributed to Thomas Chippendale see also Dreweatts, Fine Furniture, 10th September 2025, lot 126 (£9,000 excl. BP), this table compares very closely to a number of other known tables of this design and which were undoubtedly made by Chippendale. In Christopher Gilbert's The Life & Work Of Thomas Chippendale, this model of table is described as one of Chippendale's 'most popular occasional table design types' with its veneer-segmented hexagonal top, baluster shaped pedestal and similarly profiled legs with scrolled feet, although presented in several variants. Condition Report: Marks, scratches, knocks and abrasions commensurate with age and use. Some veneer movement/slight lifting discernible by touch, some veneer replacements; some cracks to the underside of the tilt top with possible later timber inset with later staining to the underside. The top possibly at a slight angle, two of the feet with later timber blocks to slightly raise them and screws to the underside. Two legs repaired (cracks barely visible) close to the column, a metal underbrace to the three legs. Impressive in the quality of the carving and the fluidity and lightness of the legs.
