Of a size most unusual in circular tables, constructed in various specimen woods on a San Domingo mahogany ground. The trefoil form platform base, supports a column of truncated incurved pyramidical shape that has knurled feet carved in the Roman manner, with spandrels at the angles. The tilt-top is of circular form with a thumbnail edge, and is inlaid with eight different specimen woods (qv) that delineate a vortex; a shape that nature naturally creates in whirlpools and tornados.
