Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 18TH CENTURY:
Six-leg frame with four swing gates: stable support used on large mid-Georgian tables.
Turned tapering legs ending in pad feet: design popular from the 1750s.
Moulded rule joints along the solid mahogany leaves: joinery found on 18th-century dining furniture.
Slight shrinkage movement at the hinges: natural timber seasoning over more than two centuries.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This George III drop leaf dining table dates from the 18th century and is made of solid mahogany with a warm brown colour and a cleaned, shellac-sealed, and wax-finished surface. The English Country House style piece features six tapered legs terminating in pad feet, drop-leaf flaps, and rule joint edges along the top. The table measures 71 cm high, 159 cm wide, and 117 cm deep when open. Practical for everyday dining rooms or kitchens, the table provides ample surface area for family meals or entertaining guests. The versatile drop-leaf design allows the flaps to be lowered when space is limited, making it adaptable for various interior layouts. The sturdy construction ensures durability for daily use, whilst the classic Georgian aesthetic complements both traditional and contemporary home interiors.

FAQs

Originating in 18th-century Britain during the reign of King George III, these tables feature hinged side flaps supported by swinging legs, allowing them to expand for dining or fold away to save space.

These tables were predominantly crafted from solid mahogany or oak, utilizing hand-cut joinery, rule joints along the hinged flaps, and turned or tapered legs with pad feet.

Look for evidence of hand-planed surfaces on the underside, period-correct iron or brass hinges, hand-cut screws, and naturally aged timber with consistent patination.

Position the table along a hallway wall with flaps down as a console, or open it fully in a modern dining area paired with contemporary seating for contrast.

Keep the wood away from direct sunlight and central heating sources, clean surfaces with a dry microfibre cloth, and apply natural beeswax polish twice a year.
