Card Table 1845

"Card Table" (1845) by E. W. Hutchings is a piece of furniture featuring a dark wood finish and intricate carvings on the legs and apron. The elegant cabriole legs and decorative embellishments suggest a French Rococo influence, though the table's simplicity reflects American furniture styles of the mid-19th century. The table is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, offering viewers a glimpse into domestic life and craftsmanship during the 19th century.
