Period19th century

MaterialMahogany
ColourDark Brown
MotifsDrop-leaf flaps, Square tapered legs, Rule joints
SizeH 74 cm (29 in) x W 114 cm (45 in) x D 95 cm (37 in)

This Georgian drop-leaf dining table dates from around 1800 and is constructed from mahogany with a dark brown timber colour and an original polish finish. The rectangular top has rule joints along the length and two drop-leaf flaps hanging vertically down the sides. The framework is raised on upright square tapered legs, finished with simple decorative shaped brackets beneath the narrow apron. Signs of age and wear include light surface scuffs and scratches visible across the polished wood grain, along with minor edge marks on the hanging leaves. Measuring 74 cm high, 114 cm wide and 95 cm deep when the leaves are closed, this versatile piece functions well in a dining room, kitchen, or living space as a space-saving side table. The hinged leaves lift easily to create a larger surface area for dining, entertaining, or everyday tasks, making it a practical addition to traditional or period-inspired interiors.

FAQs

Georgian drop-leaf tables were developed in 18th-century Britain to provide adaptable dining solutions, featuring hinged side flaps supported by swing legs or gateleg mechanisms.

These pieces were predominantly constructed from dense West Indian mahogany, featuring brass or iron hinges, rule joints along the leaf edges, and mortise and tenon joinery.

Authentic period examples display hand-sawn timber marks on the underside, hand-cut dovetails or joinery, natural shrinkage across the grain, and original brass rule-joint hinges.

When collapsed, the table functions as a slim console or side table against a wall, and can be fully opened to seat guests in compact dining areas.

Dust regularly with a dry microfibre cloth, apply natural beeswax along the timber grain annually, and avoid placement near direct heat sources to prevent timber movement.
