Figure 17  Card table, possibly by Duncan Phyfe, New York City, ca. 1820. Rosewood veneer with white pine and yellow poplar; gilded gesso, vert antique, gilded cast brass, and brass stringing. H. 30", W. 36", D. 18". (Courtesy, Hirschl & Adler Galleries, Inc.) The reeded drums on the back columns occur on furniture documented to Phyfe, and the carved feet are similar in design and workmanship to those on a card table with his label and the date 1820.
