Card Table 1810-20 American At the time when this card table was acquired from the collection of Louis Guerineau Myers, one of the great early connoisseurs and collectors of American furniture, it was attributed to the shop of Duncan Phyfe.

Recent scholarship has shown that as many as 300 cabinetmakers were at work in New York City in any given year between 1810 and 1820, and many of them were capable of rendering high-quality wares in this distinctive New York regional style..
