The table is unidentifiably manufactured by the Nathan Margolis Shop under Harold Margolis Hartford CT as it is stamped on the underside of the table… I couldn’t find stamping on the chairs or in the China cabinet but the set has been in my wife’s family her mom’s side for probably a century, and they hailed from Hartford Ct were affluent and I would guess would have purchased the matching set pieces but I cannot say for sure. This 19th century twin pedestal antique dining tables is supported by two delightfully turned pedestals each having tripod splayed legs finished with quality lion paw brass castors/wheels. This is an excellent example of a fine marriage between a Regency and Edwardian piece resulting in a superb quality antique table which is extremely sturdy, good for everyday use, whilst still having that extra “je ne sais quoi” necessary for those special occasions. Antique pedestal tables were first seen in the Early 18th Century in the form of a tripod table, used to hold candles. Antique Pedestal Tables for dining were high in fashion at the end of the 18th Century when people moved away from the traditional long solid table to the finer design standing on a single or twin pedestal base. These antique tables would stand wonderfully on turned pillars with tripod splayed legs and quality brass castors. This form was used on dining tables to much smaller occasional tables from the Late Georgian period to the Regency and Victorian eras. The idea was to make dining more comfortable and intimate, sitting closer together. It was also the fashion for furniture to look lighter and delicate at the time. Because the pedestals were in the center of the table, they did not get in the way of the chairs, unlike earlier designs with lots of legs. This was so more people could now sit around the tables comfortably. A wide, varied amount of woods were used from Mahogany, Satinwood, Rosewood occasionally with decorative Brass inlay to more simple country house English Oak.
