Oak Bobbin Gate Leg Table

19th century
For Sale by Baggott & Co.
Description

Oak bobbin gate leg table

An oval scrub top table on bobbin turned legs and stretchers, with a single gate to each end.

English, the base is 18th century with well worn stretchers, the top 19th century.

The scrub top is unpolished making it ideal for kitchen use, it can be wiped clean with a wet cloth or brush (hence scrub top), no need to worry about coasters or mats, marks left a result of use either add to the character of the table, or can be scrubbed out again, red wine included.  We had an oak trestle table in the kitchen at home with scars from where the bread had been cut directly on the table leaving deep scars to the surface, some furniture is not precious, make use of it.

77.5cm H, 53cm extending to 131cm W, 109cm D.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

A bobbin gateleg table is a space-saving dining or occasional table featuring folding leaves supported by hinged legs, characterised by distinctive bobbin-turned or spool-turned legs and stretchers popularised during the 17th century.

Traditional gateleg tables were primarily constructed from solid hardwoods, predominantly oak, walnut, or fruitwood, using mortise and tenon joinery and wooden iron-pivoted support gates.

Authentic early gateleg tables feature hand-planed surfaces, subtle variations in the bobbin turnings, hand-pegged joinery rather than modern screws, and natural wear patterns along the foot stretchers and gate mechanisms.

A gateleg table can be styled against a wall with one leaf lowered as a side table or console, or placed centrally with both leaves raised to serve as a compact dining table paired with modern seating.

Solid oak furniture should be positioned away from direct heat sources to prevent timber contraction, dusted regularly with a soft dry cloth, and periodically treated with a natural beeswax polish to protect the finish.
