Rare "Gillows" Gonzales Alvez "Crocus" Table

19th century
Description

A charming and rare early 19th century CROCUS TABLE or jardiniere, after a design by GILLOWS of LANCASTER and almost certainly made by this most famous firm of cabinetmakers.**

Constructed throughout of Gonzales Alves (a timber greatly favoured by Gillows) this lovely table, with its turned baluster gallery all around, has a central circular cover which when removed (via a clever push-rod access below) reveals the dished space in which to plant small bulbs or flowers.

It is supported on a well turned and figured solid shaped central column leading to a triform base and compressed bun feet. 31ins (79cms)high.

** Gillows is known to have made such tables, and it was this firm of fine cabinetmakers that used the term "Crocus Tables". Copies of drawings of a similar table available.

Declaration

Quiet Street Antiques of Bath has dated this piece to the 1800s.
