Purpose

Design for a table frame, May 1768, unexecuted (1)

Notes

There is no evidence that this design was executed, or indeed, if further drawings for internal fittings for Bishopthorpe were made by Adam but do not survive.

Harris has noted that this table design is almost identical to that for the pier tables designed by Adam for the velvet drawing room at Saltram House in 1772 (SM Adam volume 20/70), and for Lady Bathurst at Apsley House in c1778-79 (SM Adam volume 49/44).
