Acquired from the artist
Thence by descent to the present owners

Overall excellent original condition. This table presents with an extraordinary deep-colored rosewood top. The table was kept away from sun exposure, and therefore retains the saturated colors inherent in the superb wood. The edges of the table, as seen in the catalogue illustration brilliantly contrast the dark hues of the central portion of the table. With legs with a few scattered surface scratches consistent with use. This piece, like the other works from the collection, have been sensitively maintained throughout their history and the present condition is evidence of that care and attention.
