Regency Mahogany Extending Dining Table (England, circa 1820)

£6,800.00

A Superb Quality And Extremely Fine 19th Century Regency Period Mahogany Extending Ding Table, Having Well Figured Top Of Exceptional Rich Colour & Patina With Two Original Removable Leaves, Over Classical Pull Out Action And Four Elegant Turned And Reeded Legs To Corners, Terminating On Unusual Clove Turned Feet And Replacement Brass Castors.

This dining table can comfortably seat 10 people and it would actually be possible to seat 12 people at a push with two sat each end.

There are of course an extremely wide variety of antique dining tables available for sale and they come in an extremely wide variety of designs, qualities and conditions. This can make choosing a dining table difficult but actually often it is best to remember that elegance and fucntion comes from simplicity.

Certainly this fabulous regency dining table is relatively simple in terms of the way that it works, with a typical but very functional pull out action exposing sturdy, good quality bearers for the two original leaves to be placed on top of, but it adds a certain level of class and sophistication when it comes to the rest of its construction.

The timbers which have been used are second to none. Rich, dense, well figured mahogany which has significant weight behind it and that is a large part of the reason this table has remained in such good condition.

The legs are incredibly elegant. Relatively thin, whilst still being significant enough to maintain sturdiness to the table, with a really unusual little clove type bulbous turning at the bottom which is a lovely little feature. The castors are replacements.

Overall the table is in excellent condition, with just a few expected old blemishes, scuffs, scrapes and old scratches which have now blended into the overall surface of the piece. Importantly the action still moves back and forward very smoothly allowing for easy operation and adaptation.

The two leaves which come with the table are original to it and that is something which again can be quite unusual as often over the years the leaves of a table are placed out of the way somewhere in a different room and never returned back to the table. It is of course possible to use the table with neither of the additional leaves in, just one of them, or both, which allows for great flexibility and functionality.

As with all items which we offer for sale this extending dining table has been inspected at our workshops by our highly skilled, trained antique furniture restorers and received a natural wax polish before being offered for sale to ensure it is ready for immediate placement within the home.

You will find a lot of antique extending dining tables for sale, but few with the quality, elegance, charm, functionality and overall charm of this particular one.
