teapoys (tea tables (tables), <tables by function>, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Small three-legged tables or stands; also, table-like stands for tea caddies. The term is of Anglo-Indian origin, originally from the Hindu word "tepai" for tripod. From ca. 1810, the term was used specifically for small tables used to support tea caddies or tea chests, whether or not the table had three legs. Teapoys were often fitted with various compartments for storing tea. The stand may be one with, or dettachable from, the tea chest or caddy. |
