DESCRIPTION

A good Queen Anne period oak six-legged gateleg table, dating from around 1700. A handsome and honest example, retaining its original top, base and drop leaves, with a rich, deep colour and well-developed patina acquired over more than three centuries.

The rectangular top incorporates two drop leaves, supported on swinging gate legs, allowing the table to be used either as a compact side table or fully extended as a practical side, lamp or occasional table. It stands on attractively turned baluster legs united by plain stretchers, all displaying pleasing proportions typical of the Queen Anne period.

 

A genuine early 18th-century table with excellent character and useful proportions.

CONDITION

Presented in good, honest antique condition, commensurate with over 300 years of age and use. The table retains its original top, base and drop leaves with a rich original colour and patina. There are expected marks, knocks, scratches and water staining to the top. Some of the original hinges remain present, although their action is now provided by later adjacent hinges of the same design due to deterioration of the originals. The frame is solid and sturdy with no significant structural issues and the gatelegs move smoothly, making this an attractive and authentic example of an early Queen Anne gateleg table.
