Figure 3 Pier table, Baltimore, Maryland, 1815–1830. Yellow pine and maple; rosewood graining, gilt plaster, hollow cast lead (monopedia), ormolu, and glass. H. 37 1/4", W. 45", D. 23 1/8". (Courtesy, Baltimore Museum of Art; bequest of Elizabeth Curzon Hoffman Wing, in memory of Hanson Rawlings Duval, Jr.) The description of Robert Gilmor, Jr.’s pier table suggests that this form may date earlier than traditionally believed. |
