<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 309378, member: 37"]Photos are not really sufficient to tell what I am seeing. Can you tell if table is solid or a veneer? Seem to see a joint line in the very center that does not extend beyond the splines. Can you tell what that is? Otherwise, the carving does not seem to be of the quality I would expect to see on a truly old example. Consequently, my initial reaction is that this was made sometime the first half of the 20th century. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here are some pics of a nice older one (still 20th century) for comparison.......</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjC1a_Vqe7XAhUFleAKHSo_Am0QjRwIBw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.antiquescollaborative.com%2Fitems%2F953869%2FChippendale-style-tilt-top-mahogany-tea-table&psig=AOvVaw1wGOEkaOfQwuA5_vGfUFJ-&ust=1512407015475151" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjC1a_Vqe7XAhUFleAKHSo_Am0QjRwIBw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.antiquescollaborative.com%2Fitems%2F953869%2FChippendale-style-tilt-top-mahogany-tea-table&psig=AOvVaw1wGOEkaOfQwuA5_vGfUFJ-&ust=1512407015475151" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://www.trocadero.com/stores/collab/items/953869/picture1.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiMvKLyqe7XAhWiSd8KHbyjDRMQjRwIBw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.antiques.com%2Fclassified%2F17938%2FChippendale-style-tilt-top-mahogany-tea-table&psig=AOvVaw1wGOEkaOfQwuA5_vGfUFJ-&ust=1512407015475151" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiMvKLyqe7XAhWiSd8KHbyjDRMQjRwIBw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.antiques.com%2Fclassified%2F17938%2FChippendale-style-tilt-top-mahogany-tea-table&psig=AOvVaw1wGOEkaOfQwuA5_vGfUFJ-&ust=1512407015475151" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.antiques.com/vendor_item_images/ori_333-34264-953869-Chippendale-style-tilt-top-mahogany-tea-table-picture2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
