A beautifully restored solid oak drop-leaf / gateleg dining table, offering generous dining space when open and excellent space-saving practicality when folded down.
The solid oak top has been carefully oiled and waxed to enhance the natural grain, warmth and character of the wood. The base and turned legs have been painted in Rugged Olive, giving the table a refined country-style look, while the metal hinges have been painted in gloss black for a clean, considered contrast.
Fully opened, the table provides a practical dining surface suitable for everyday use, occasional dining, kitchen seating, craft work or flexible living spaces. When closed, it becomes a slim and compact piece that can sit neatly against a wall, making it ideal for smaller homes, kitchens, cottages or multi-use rooms.
Restored and presented in very good condition.
The solid oak top has been oiled and waxed, bringing out the attractive grain and giving the surface a warm, natural finish. The painted Rugged Olive base and turned legs are clean and smart, and the gloss black hinges give a neat contrasting detail.
The table is sturdy, practical and ready for use. As with any restored vintage or pre-owned piece, there may be small signs of age or previous use, but these are in keeping with the character of the table and do not detract from its appearance or function.
Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
Wipe spills immediately and avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive products. To protect the oiled and waxed oak top, use placemats, coasters and table mats, especially with hot items, liquids or sharp objects.
Avoid placing directly next to radiators, strong heat sources or prolonged direct sunlight, as this can affect natural timber over time. The oak top can be refreshed periodically with a suitable furniture wax or oil to maintain its finish.
