Below is a pullout action frieze mounted to each side with finely painted Sèvres-Style porcelain plaques and fluted tapering legs with inlaid square capitals and turned tapering feet. The fold over top opens to reveal a baize lined playing surface within a gilt-tooled red leather border and shallow ebonised counter wells to the corners.
