An exceptional, authentic mid-18th century (circa 1750) Georgian drop-leaf dining table. When fully extended, it forms a beautiful, spacious oval shape with a gorgeous, rich mahogany grain running across the top.
Built to last centuries, the construction details completely confirm its 1700s origins. It features traditional hand-pegged mortise and tenon joints on the legs, hand-crafted wooden knuckle/finger joints underneath the gate-legs, and original iron hinges.
It is highly versatile—use it fully open as a family dining table, with one leaf down against a wall, or completely folded down as a slim entryway console.
