attributed to the workshop of Duncan Phyfe or Charles Honore Launnier, highly figured tops with canted corners, drop leaves with two swing leg supports, reeded and turned legs with brass ball capped feet, two spare leaves, one section with drop leaf down 29 x 52 x 24 in., drop leaves add 20-1/2 in., spare leaves add 20-1/4 in.
Provenance: Woldman & Woldman, Alexandria, Virginia, April 1989 (accompanied by copy of receipt for $30,550); Private New York Collection
Note: A Lannuier labeled table in the collection of Winterthur Museum has a very similar apron (Charles Montgomery, American Furniture: The Federal Period [1966], p. 333, fig. 306). Duncan Phyfe documented examples in Peter Kenny and Michael Brown, Duncan Phyfe: Master Cabinetmaker in New York [2011], p. 168, fig. 7 have reeded legs of similar form, though the bulbous turning to the foot in this example stands out from those. Chair example with similar brass ball feet and reeding to the leg in Hirschl & Adler Galleries, The World of Duncan Phyfe (2012), p. 24, fig. 6, listed as "possibly Duncan Phyfe or Charles-Honore Lannuier".
