Provenance: Cowdray. For a similar scagliola mounted centre table see Christie’s New York, A Celebration of the English Country House, 4th April 2007. ‘The use of dolphins as supports for table tops first became popular in English furniture design in the second quarter of the eighteenth century. The form was revived in the Regency and early Victorian period, as seen in the celebrated suite of dolphin furniture supplied to Powderham Castle, Devonshire in 1797-99, almost certainly by the Royal cabinet makers Marsh and Tatham, and a pair of console tables, almost certainly made by Marsh and Tatham for the 1st Duke of Sutherland at Cleveland House, London, sold, Christie’s, July 4, 1991, lot 161. Thomas Sheraton illustrated furniture with dolphins in his Cabinet Dictionary of 1803, pl. 16, and twenty years later, in 1825, Rudolf Ackermann’s Repository was recommending ‘modern French furniture’, the dolphin motif used as supports for a centre table (see P. Agius, Ackermann’s Regency Furniture and Interiors, London, 1984, p.161, pl. 148).’
