Edward William Godwin (attributed) for Collinson and Lock.

An Anglo-Japanese rosewood side table, the moulded shaped top with four japanesque fretted supports on tapered and flared legs with a moulded frieze divided into four segmented compartments and with oval patera to each side above a cross stretcher. The shaped top with Anglo-Japanese fretwork supports and splayed legs united by cross stretchers are typical to Godwin The splayed legs and carved decoration inspired by simple Georgian furniture and Godwin is known to have a collection of Georgian furniture his earliest home in Bristol was furnished in "carefully selected antique furniture…. a reversion to Eighteenth century" which inspired his designs enormously.
