[QUOTE="James Conrad, post: 4375437, member: 5066"]Yes, you are not alone on that score but, it's really not a W&M style, more like Charles ll which was the style in England just before W&M or here, "pilgrim century". Sotheby's described it incorrectly as W&M though, I stole it a couple years ago at the Vogel sale for $1000. It has great provenance, I guessed correctly people at that sale would be put off by the replaced top which, if I had to guess, Nutting himself replaced that top! There are no known American pilgrim "square" tables that have their original top. [URL]https://www.sothebys.com/en/auctions/ecatalogue/2018/collection-anne-h-frederick-vogel-iii-n10003/lot.822.html[/URL] Provenance is no longer listed on the sale page. Wallace Nutting Collection, Framingham, Massachusetts; Wadsworth Atheneum, Hartford, Connecticut; Sotheby’s, New York, Fine Americana, October 26, 1991, sale 6227, lot 250; Donald P. White III, Woodstock, Connecticut, July 2007; Vogel Collection lot 822, January 2019[/QUOTE]
