Card Table 1822 - 1825

Duncan Phyfe, a prominent American furniture maker, created this card table between 1822 and 1825. It is a fine example of his work, known for its elegant simplicity and refined craftsmanship. The table's mahogany surface features intricate marquetry and brass inlays, while the central pedestal and four curved legs are capped with brass feet. The table, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to Phyfe's skill and artistry, showcasing the artistry of American furniture design during the early 19th century.
