Artifact Overview
Beginning in the 1790s, Pembroke tables became popular in wealthy American households. These versatile tables were used in parlors and bedrooms and were often moved from room to room. They could be rectangular or oval, but they always featured drop-leafs to make the table larger for eating breakfast, writing or serving tea.
