M. and the right dated 1520. Raised on chamfered rectangular section splayed legs.
This exceptional piece has a wonderful overall feel, from the well worn top, to the water faded lower legs and a great overall colour and wax patinated finish. This table will sell to a serious oak lover.

A Unique late 19th Century, French Oak, Art Nouveau, Parquetry Top, Draw Leaf Dining Table
“This table defies simple explanation”
The bold pegged, cleated, solid parquetry top having a large rectangular four seater central section. Unusually, each drawer leaf is of a different size. One being 42cm the other 60cm.
The base, is as unusual as the tops, having a plain central moulded frieze above bold, square, out-swept legs, joined by a ‘Y’ stretcher.
The overall varied depths of colour and patination are due to the unusual geometric feel of this table.
*‘Y’ stretcher is an alternative to the ‘H’ stretcher, enabling chairs to be slid under further, particularly on tables with less overhang, enabling more leg room.
