Re waxing this magnificent second half 17th century English oak refectory table.

This English refectory dining table was made between 70 and 30 years before Captain James Cook was born.

Thats something interesting to think about.

I spent most of today re waxing this magnificent second half 17th century English oak refectory table.

Incredible what a good wax can achieve.

The thick single plank, cleated top, on baluster turned legs, joined by well worn stretchers.

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✨✨

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.

A rare George III Cuban mahogany folding tea table.

The exquisite grained single plank rectangular moulded top, lifting to become a two plank square tea/card table top.
The unusual centred hinged rear legs opening to join with the sides.
The beautifully moulded front legs give a sense of style to a very classic straight lined table.
The narrow cock beaded drawer to the plain skirt, retaining the original brass swan-neck handle.

Still awaiting a nice re waxing.

18th century English oak lowboy.

Another piece purchased last week that still requires a clean up and re wax finishing.
I’ll carefully remove much of the later polish, bring back to a lighter oak, then re wax finish.
Later brass work, I’ll probably replace with period style swan-neck handles.
