A Colonial, rosewood round Occasional Table made to dismantle.

To breakdown the table into its five parts, the three legs are unscrewed from the top. The underside of the top has three support bars set in a triangle and a threaded hole at each point that they meet. The legs have a brass ring to their tops and are fitted with a steel bolt to fit to the holes to the underside of the top. With the top off, the shelf which also has a triangle of support bars can be removed. It can only be lifted off from the top of the turned legs as there is a wider, cubed section to each leg above the foot. The shelf sits on this section which although a fairly primitive method of cabinet making, works.

The small size of the table makes it useful for a lamp or to use by the side of a chair. Mid to late 19th Century.
