 The sale of the table is part of an exceptionally fine sale of furniture and collectibles which includes the major contents of two period properties recently sold.

“It’s an amazing table,” said Gerry McAfee. “All 13ft 10” of it, and certainly one of the finest we have had in our sale rooms for some time. The mahogany table is 5ft wide included five leaves, and has at one time seated 20 people; of course it can be made smaller by reducing its five leaves.”
