Webberley Antiques has dated this Antique Oak Gateleg Table to the 1700s.
Original iron hinges and the table leaves open smoothly and rest level and flat when extended. Marks, knocks, bracing added below the drop leaves. There are a few old worm holes here and there - all long since dead – and some old cracks, wear, losses, repairs and restorations. All entirely normal and acceptable in 300+ year old table and these minor faults are reflected in my price.
The table is shown here with a set of 18th century Shropshire chairs which are a good height for the table and look perfect with it. The chairs are available separately on my website.
This Queen Anne table has a great colour and beautiful, entirely natural, patination.
A usable and handsome period table seating six people in comfort.
Dimensions are:
29.5 inches high, 44 inches deep, 58 inches wide when open, 19 inches wide when leaves are lowered.
