This table is a beautiful example of Leonard Wyburd’s diversity in design, he is better known for his early Moresque designs and heavy Oak designs for Liberty, but this is a much softer hand with lovely subtleties. Featured in the 1906 Studio Year book.

I can imagine a beautiful Liberty & Co silver tea service designed by Archibald Knox sitting on top.
