This table was solely designed for the Edinburgh Tenaments. It varies from a traditional Pembroke in a number of ways. Pembrokes have two leaves and legs that dont move. Edinburgh tables have one leaf and have two designs of legs.
The purpose of this table is to sit behind a sofa/ settee. It is designed to be a desk and a dining table.
Likewise if you had guests you could put the leaf up and entertain or eat your meal. This example is my personal table I have had for some years. A house move means I have no space for it. Its a very practical table, you can work and be with the family at the same time.
There was a wonderful lecture on this table by the Furniture History Society about 15 years ago.
it is
79 cms high
123 cms wide
47.5 cms deep closed
76 cms deep with the leaf up.
