Rare 18th Century oak wine table – Isle of Man
The well patinated circular top supported by a beautifully turned column, raised on three down swept cabriole legs terminating in boot feet.
The shaped legs resembling the Isle of Man flag.
The flag features three running legs bent at the knees conjoined at the centre.
Local residents of the Isle of Man explain that the legs turn anti-clockwise so that they don’t kneel to the English.
The use of the emblem on the flag in the Isle of Man dates back to the 13th Century.

Apartment entrance display.
Being terribly overstocked, (but not complaining) I’ve taken this walnut entrance table to my apartment to create more shop space and over decorate my entrance!
My usual entrance pieces are also quite out of my usual style, but having a retro 1970 built apartment, I wanted something different from the interior at the door.
Not my usual style or periods, but had to have these unique pieces✨✨
A decorative glass top occasional table, with golden toned cast iron lotus leaves.
The glass top accentuates the beautiful stepped leaf design.

The striking beauty for all to see.

18th Century English Country oak Wine Table.
The well patinated, circular tilt top, on a turned central column,
resting on three out-swept cabriole legs.
This is a great example of how to maintain period furniture, without over restoration.
Most important to me is the originality of anything I sell.
All this table requires is a slight re glue and re wax finishing.
