The Celtic Club Collection, Melbourne.

Only one other table of this design, has been traced – also in blackwood, with minor variations in some details (Leski Auctions, The Gary & Genevieve Morgan Collection | Part One, Melbourne, 7 December, 2021, lot 146). That two tables of this design and period have both appeared in Melbourne, and nowhere else, suggests that their design and manufacture was original and unique to an unidentified Melbourne maker.
