ATTRIBUTED TO WILLIAM MOORE OF DUBLIN, CIRCA 1780,

This elegant pier table is almost certainly the work of the Dublin cabinet-maker William Moore (d.1815). Thought to be "[B]y far the most important cabinet-maker who reflected the new taste for Neo-Classicism and the Adam style" (Glin and J. Peill, Irish Furniture, New Haven, 2007, p162). The design shows clear links to the work of Mayhew and Ince, for whom Moore worked prior to establishing his own workshop in Dublin.
