Note: The form of this table has similarities to the ‘Kelmscott’ table Philip Webb designed in circa 1875, which William Morris had in his study at Kelmscott House, Hammersmith, with its H form stretcher and turned legs. There is a watercolour by Mary A. Sloane ('May Morris in Tapestry Room at Kelmscott Manor', 1910-15), which depicts William Morris' daughter May editing the twenty-four volumes of Collected Works by William Morris at the Kelmscott table. The picture is held in the William Morris Gallery, Waltham Forest, London.
