Unusually long 3.2m early 19th century French oak, chestnut and fruitwood refectory/farmhouse table.
Having a 6cm thick two plank moulded top.
Above a thick plain skirt, resting on square chamfered legs, joined by an ‘H’ stretcher.

Loved waxing up this magnificent long dining table over the past two days.
Remarkable how easy it is to bring something to life with such a simple process.
Also a great work out I need!! It’s hard yakka!
Cleaning and re wax finishing an old flat wax finish reveals all the natural beauty and depth of the hundreds of years old patina and knots.
Especially on the two plank oak top and long chestnut centre stretcher.
Note, the last photo in lane when arrived from France.
Now awaiting customers to come see…
