17th Century Oak Draw Leaf Extending Dining Table
A substantial 17th century oak draw leaf dining table, retaining a particularly good colour and well-worn surface developed through centuries of use. The rectangular three-plank top has cleated ends, with a draw leaf extending from either end to increase the table from 133cm to an impressive 225cm in length. The top is raised on four substantial turned oak supports, united by a traditional H-form stretcher.
The oak has a rich, deep colour throughout, with a very attractive wild grain. The broad boards, robust construction and substantial turned base give it a particularly pleasing early appearance. At 133cm long when closed, the table remains relatively compact for everyday use, while the two draw leaves provide considerably greater dining space when required.

Height: 75 cm
Width: 80 cm

CONDITION
Presented in good antique condition and structurally sound. There are marks, patches and areas of wear throughout, consistent with the considerable age and use of the table. The draw-leaf mechanism operates as intended and both leaves extend to provide a substantially larger dining surface. The table surface is solid and level when extended.
Overall, a characterful early oak table retaining a particularly good colour and naturally aged surface.

    ABOUT ALSO

    ​

    Thank you for viewing this piece from ALSO Antiques.

     

    We carefully select antique furniture and decorative objects for their quality, craftsmanship, character and individuality. Our tastes are broad, and we’re happy to be led by the piece rather than a particular period or style. Above all, we choose things we genuinely admire and would be happy to have in our own home.

     

    Every item is individually inspected, researched and professionally photographed, with clear descriptions and honest condition reports to help you buy with confidence.

     

    We believe good furniture should have a long life. Choosing antique keeps well-made furniture and existing materials in use, and we favour sympathetic restoration that preserves the patina and character acquired over generations.

    Viewing is welcome by appointment at our premises in North Yorkshire, close to the Lancashire border. If there is anything you would like to know before purchasing, we are always happy to answer questions, provide additional photographs or check particular measurements.

    AUTHENTICITY & CONDITION

     

    We strive to describe every item as accurately and honestly as possible. Statements regarding age, attribution, origin and provenance are offered in good faith and represent our professional opinion based on the information available at the time of listing.

     

    As all of our items are antique or vintage, signs of age and use should be expected. Old repairs, knocks, wear, variations in colour and other minor imperfections are often part of a piece’s history and character. Where condition affects its integrity, appearance or usefulness, we will endeavour to make this clear in the description.
