THE POXWELL MANOR REFECTORY TABLE: AN IMPORTANT OAK AND ELM "MONASTIC" REFECTORY TABLE, 16th century, with old repairs and replacements, with a single plank rectangular top on two openwork elm trestle supports in the form of flying buttresses with down-curved legs, 78.5cm high x 104cm wide x 365cm long. The top is 9cm deepThis monumental refectory table is a remarkable survival. It represents the earliest form of English dining table and may be compared to depictions of similar tables in late medieval manuscripts.Provenance: Until the 1970's the table was at the ancient Manor of Poxwell (Pokeswell) having descended in the Trenchard family. In the Middle Ages the manor was in the possession of Cerne Abbey and, by tradition, the table was moved from the Abbey at the time of the Dissolution under Henry VIII. A new house was built for the Poole merchant, Thomas Henning, in 1613 and it passed to Elizabeth Trenchard (née Henning) in 1699. The table was acquired by the family of the present owners when the descendants of the Trenchards sold the manor house in the 1970's.Poxwell Manor served as a place of rest for King George III on a number of occasions when he visited Weymouth during the latter part of the 18th century. Later the house was visited by Thomas Hardy and it is believed it was the inspiration for Oxwell Hall in "The Trumpet Major" published in 1880.

A GEORGE II GILTWOOD CONSOLE TABLE second quarter 18th century, The rectangular grey-veined white marble top above a echinus moulding and key pattern frieze, supported by an eagle with spread wings standing on a rocky base, on a square pedestal, restorations, regilt, 91cm high x 143cm wide x 76cm deepProvenance: with Hotspur, London, 1998.The use of an eagle as a support for a table was popularised in England by William Kent (1685/6 - 1748), the remarkable designer of furniture, objects, landscapes and architect. Kent’s designs drew on his decade in Italy from 1709-1719, spent mostly in the studio of the painter G. B. Chiari. On one of these last trips he travelled - at breakneck speed - with his fellow Yorkshireman (both were from the East Riding) Richard Boyle, 3rd Earl of Burlington (1694-1753) who was to provide patronage for Kent throughout his architectural career: Kent rose to the position of Deputy Surveyor of the King’s Works in the Office of Works, the department of the Royal Household responsible for architecture and buildings.Kent’s design for an eagle table support is likely to be derived from designs by Giovanni Giardini, published in Disegni Diversi, 1714 - in particular an elaborate table which featured an eagle with spread wings in the centre. Kent later used this design in an engraved tailpiece for Alexander Pope’s translation of Homer’s Odyssey, 1725-26. The earliest recorded eagle tables of this type were made for the Duke of Beaufort, between 1728-1733 by John Phillips, a carver, who was paid £444 9s 6d for work at Badminton House, Gloucestershire. Thomas Moore wrote to Dudley Ryder in 1734 about “an Eagle frame and Top Carved and guilded in burnished gold” which cost £12 (see catalogue entry to the pair of eagle tables in the Victoria & Albert Museum W.21-1945.1-2). Benjamin Goodison (1700-1767), whose workshop was at the ‘Golden Spread Eagle’ on Long Acre was one cabinet-maker who made furniture designed by Kent at Kensington Palace for George I (eg. the frame for Tintoretto’s The Muses RCIN 7405476) and for Frederick, Prince of Wales, probably at The White House, Kew (designed by Kent). While no eagle tables are known to have been made by Goodison, a pair of eagle tables was supplied around 1725 for Dudley North, at Glemham Hall, Suffolk (see Christie’s London, 12 November 1998, lot 80 - sold £150,000).
