Note: The design for a "Universal Table" appears in Thomas Sheraton's s "The Cabinet-Maker and Upholsterer's Drawing-Book" published in 1793. He went on to describe it thus: "The use of this piece is to answer the purpose of both a breakfast and dining-table. When both the leaves are slipped under the bed, it will then serve as a breakfast-table when one leaf is out, as in this view, it will accomodate five persons as a dining-table and if both are out, it will admit of eight, being near seven feet long and three feet six inches in width." In the following technical description he goes on to talk about the pins under the central leaf as well as the material to stop the flaps rubbing and "At the under side of the flaps must be goged out finger holes to draw them out by."
