MHP0007Description
Tilt top tables were popular in from the mid 18th century through the Victorian Era. Tilting the top allowed a table to be stored in a smaller space when not in use. In other uses, small tables such as this could have a candle on the small platform, allowing one person to read or do other work while shielding a person on the other side from the light.Create Date
