Baltimore Card Table

This is a Baltimore or Federal card table.
Primary wood is mahogany. Veneer is mahogany and yew. Banding and oval inlays were purchased, while I made the stringing (the narrow lines). The feet are coloured with an analine dye.




The rear legs are hinged. This allows them to swing out and support the table top, which is also hinged.
