Made in the Smith Brothers of Bristol workshops, who were serving the well heeled and professional classes in this affluent city and surrounding areas.
Their goods are always of the highest quality (sometimes you will find an item by this company stamped just Bros)
The wonderful, shaped top with the Irish carving running around the lower moulding and a thumb moulding above, the burr walnut book matched highlighting the heartwood at the centre that is slightly darker in tone.
The magnificent base with the shaped cluster supports with the fine turned finial in the centre and then the quadruple finely carved cabriole legs below.
