DESCRIPTIONThe origin of the term “Lazy Susan” is unknown although the invention of the object has often, probably erroneously, been attributed to Thomas Jefferson. Interesting as that may be, it does seem somewhat improbable as revolving “dumb-waiters” are known from much earlier periods. A really nice and practical piece for any party and of course it can also be used as a display stand for sculpture and art. London, c. 1835-40
