Label TextThis impressive dining table was not the one used by the Huntingtons, but was instead acquired after their home became a public gallery; it was meant to be a period counterpart to the 18th-century paintings, chairs, and side tables already in the collection. Made of mahogany, an expensive imported wood, it was also highly functional—its pedestal sections could be separated into individual tables for smaller groups of diners.Status
