[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 551251, member: 5066"]HOLD ON A SECOND! I happen to have an english period william & mary "tavern table" in Pear. It's similar form to what CX table looked like prior to it being converted to a drop leaf. I bought it 4 or 5 years ago from pics, i thought it might be an early american southern table, it turned out to be english. :( but at least it was period, 1st quarter 18th century. :happy: It was estate sale of Kristina Barbara Johnson, you know, the lady who hired on as a maid for the band-aide guy and then married him, Johnson & Johnson, who had a pet tortoise named George that once belonged to the court of Queen Victoria. Table was listed in auction as "American Tavern Table" it wasn't american, it wasn't a tavern table but, it was PERIOD! lol[/QUOTE]
