36th year in business and about the 6th farmhouse table I’ve stocked over 2.1m (Rare when original)
The deep three plank, cleated top, above a pleasantly plain narrow frieze, one end having a long drawer with original turned handle and warped central drawer divide.
The thick, well worn, patinated single plank sycamore top, retaining the original steel strapping to one end, the free standing pointed corners showing the shrinkage of the timber over the centuries.
Raised on rectangular out-swept ash chamfered legs.
Pewter and pears always suit French provincial and period English oak and country furniture.
17th century Hendrick Draakestein, Kaida Leaf 1686 and three framed 19th century Wolters Pears 1880, hanging above.
Squeezed in a 19th century French elm trunk for a change.

Its been over 15 years since I have had such an exceptional dining table in stock. 30 years in business and 41 years in the trade, this is the fifth period table I have had over 2.8m. Traded another table with a private customer to obtain.
