This is a rare lyre card table; we have seen no others of this type. The carving on the Lyre is absolutely spectacular, and the shaping of the saber legs with brass inlaid shoulders is unusual. The carved paw feet are also a special feature. The figured mahogany is exceptional, and its condition is immaculate.
