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 three plank top, above a plain frieze, resting on square tapered legs.
Note: Exceptional wild grain overall, with knots and fallen knots to the legs, a great talking point. (You won’t see this on a fancy 19th century French walnut, highly polished extension dining table) The raw beauty of French provincial pieces, same as unique English country furniture!
H.69cm W.138cm D.64cm
The smallest original French farmhouse table I’ve ever seen. Beautifully worn finish, showing the naturally oxidised oak grain.
The beautifully patinated, deep five plank top, with original bread-slide, above a narrow slight moulded skirt, resting on square tapered legs.
1800 – 1820
H.75cm W.2m D.90cm
Sold this table from my storeroom, was planning on taking to my apartment, but business is business!
So like much of my stock, didn’t make my showroom.
The set of six American oak windsor armchairs also sold, they suit so well and are very comfortable. I used one as my desk chair.
A late 19th Century French flame mahogany card table.
The single flame moulded top, unfolding to a card playing table, having a decorative book-matched veneered frieze, on a well turned support column, resting on three outswept legs, with acanthus leaf carvings to the knees.
Note: Not my usual stock, you’ll notice the photograph. You’ll then notice this card table surrounded by entire family, from around 1900.
Fantastic to hang above to create a perfect conversation piece.
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✨✨
The large single plank quarter sawn walnut top having a zebra grained effect, above a plain frieze, resting on an unusual labyrinth of barley twist legs and angled stretchers.
William and Mary influence in the styling of the base. Early 18th Century style revived in the second half of the 19th Century.
The well patinated thick single plank top, above a deep geometric drawer, having a divided interior, with carved star motifs and bold steel key.
Resting on well turned legs, joined by square stretchers, on matching bun feet.
Note, the top without visible shrinkage, as one plank. Thickness of top 3.5cm
The three plank cleated top (later hinged – originally sliding)
Above canted bin, with original leaf and moulded carving.
Resting on a shaped, moulded skirt with a carved central star, joined to front cabriole legs.
Still to be re-glued, and re wax finished.
Or left un waxed, as beautifully oxidised over the centuries.
