Regency Mahogany Extending Dining Table, 10ft7 / Seats 12

A super late Regency mahogany extending dining table attributed to Gillows of Lancaster. This 4ft wide table smoothly extends from 5ft 3in to 10ft 7in allowing it to incorporate any combination of the three original leaves and seat up to 12 people. The rounded rectangular top has a moulded edge and a plain frieze and stands on turned reeded legs with original brass caps and castors. The interlocking bearers which allow the table to extend benefit from the addition of a worm screw winding mechanism by Samuel Hawkins of London. Unusually and a distinct sign of quality this table also comes with two additional frieze mouldings which can be fitted to the open sides to conceal the runners. In very good condition with good quality timbers and original colour.

When buying it is important appreciate antiques have long histories of daily use and as such, over time they gain minor scratches, marks, knocks, shrinkage splits, signs of old woodworm, lifts and losses to veneer, which combine with care and years of polishing to create an individual character and patina. We describe the main flaws and those that fall outside of this bracket but cannot describe each marks separately and therefore suggest you do take the time to request extra photos. We do offer a 14 day money back guarantee if you are unhappy with your purchase but cannot refund the return shipping cost. If you are not sure please do not buy without clarifying or take the view that the only way to have it as near to new as possible is to have it fully and comprehensively restored.

For delivery we use a small carrier experience in carrying antique furniture. Delivery is usually within 31 days and the carrier will make arrangements with you directly. We can provide contact details of other carriers if required.
