The Royal Collection Trust retains a pair of similar card tables in The Music Room at Buckingham Palace, each with swivelling top veneered with rosewood; in part decorated with carved and gilded ornament and inlaid with brass. The closed top inlaid with a scrolled brass line and at each front corner a fleur-de-lys, on serpentine splayed legs joined by a central undertier. This pattern of card-table is associated with the work of the London cabinet-maker George Oakley. They may have been purchased by Queen Mary.
