Yolanda Gray Antiques has dated this piece to the 1800s.
The table is raised on lovely tapering moulded legs. The table consists of a pair of ‘D end’ tables with a centre-section and two additional ‘drop-in’ leaves for extending the table. The table can be configured in a multitude of different ways: the two ‘D ends’ can be used separately as console tables, or they can be locked together to form a circular centre table, which will seat four people. The two ‘D ends’ can be attached either side of the centre-section, which will seat six people. The legs can be folded out on one ‘D end’ to accommodate one of the drop-in leaves, creating a table which will seat 8 people. Finally, the legs of both ‘D ends’ can be extended, such that both drop-in leaves can be attached, in order to create the full-size dining table, which will comfortable seat up to 8 people. This ability to be configured in so many different ways allow the table to be utilised in the best way possible according to room size and intended use. The table retains its eight brass clips, which are used to connect the various leaves together, and the underside of the table retains the original steel strap hinges and locking latch mechanism, which is rare to see. The chairs in the picture are not included in the price.
