A 19th century mahogany concertina card table, the foldover top with carved border, the concertina hinges stamped with maker's mark 'H. Tibats', raised on carved square tapering legs and spade feet, 90cm wide, 45cm deep, 74cm high
The 'H. Tibats' hinge, discussed by Peter Thornton in 'A Signed Hinge', Furniture History, Leeds, 1966, (pp. 44-45), has been recorded on a number of concertina card-tables. Tibats was clearly an important source of iron fittings and was probably based in London or Birmingham.
