This majestic table has four leaf extensions and can comfortably seat fourteen. This striking table has been hand-crafted from solid oak which is not only strong, but has a beautiful grain. The top is in Pollard, oak with twin line inlaid marquetry decoration, which is seen in the intricate burr on the table top.
The four leaf extensions can be added or removed as required to suit the occassion by a special winding mechanism.
The table is raised on massive hand carved square section legs with blind fret mould
...ing, headed by carved masks, and terminating in brass castors.
The superb set of fourteen matching burr walnut and inlaid marquetry dining chairs complement the table beautifully. The set comprises a pair of armchairs along with a total of twelve side chairs. The chairs are made from solid walnut and also feature marquetry inlaid decoration along the same lines as the table.
