charles i english oak gateleg dining table c.1640

A fabulous English oak gateleg dining table, circa 1640.

This early example of gateleg dining table shows many years of use and enjoyment throughout its long lifespan; wonderfully patinated as a result. Each drop leaf section is in good working order, with the depth from the 17th century English oak exuding historical charm and character.At one side of the table, a deep pull out drawer is situated, with a simple iron teardrop handle, mounted to a three leaf clover behind. The table is sat over 4 turned spindle legs joined by a square stretcher, upon turned out block style feet.The superior quality of this near 400 year old piece ensures all parts are fully functional and in working order, commensurate with age. A truly wonderful slice of history to own, and a superb addition to a dining area, or as a central focal point in a hallway or reception room. Period: Charles I (C.1640)Measurements (when open): W120cm x D136cm x H69cm | W47in x D53in x H27in
