Very Fine and Rare Classical Carved and Figured Mahogany Three-Part Pedestal Dining Table, Attributed to Duncan Phyfe (1768-1854), New York, Circa 1815

Wear commensurate with age and use. The two ends of the top are sunbleached, one side is worse than the other, but the central leaf appears to retain its original color. The two additional leaves each have a 1/2in. wide patch through their length. One iron bracket is lacking from the underside of the central section. One of the battens to the central section was previously detached and strengthened with L-brackets. The rails that accompany the table are later replacements. Length of the leaves, 26 in.
