Recently restored – unusual 19th century English figured walnut extension dining table

Was coated with thick pasty oxides years ago, that hid the beautiful natural grain.

There were strong black rings to the top and leaves and a few chips.I hand stripped, Eddie patched the tops and bleached the rings.

Then I sealed and hand finished the table is as lighter natural finish as possible, using traditional french polishing and modern protective finishes.

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

Thats something interesting to think about.

Incredible what a good wax can achieve.

A rare George III solid yew-wood pembroke table – UK1881

I’ve enjoyed having this beautiful 18th century English yew-wood side table in my apartment for the past few years.
Being a dealer and having such special pieces, I have the enjoyment of living with, then selling once replacing.

I’ll truly miss this table, however living in an apartment forces one to cull!

This table will be back in my showroom next week.
