The Extending Dining Table

The rectangular top has gently rounded corners and a finely moulded edge, with an understated design that allows the figuring and warm mahogany colour to take prominence.

Two removable leaves increase the length from 182 cm to 303 cm. Their matching finish and moulded edges continue the outline of the main top when the table is extended.

Beneath, two turned pedestal columns each rise from three swept, reeded legs terminating in brass-coloured paw castors. The pedestal arrangement keeps the outer corners clear of conventional table legs and complements the traditional character of the chairs.

The Ten Dining Chairs

The set comprises eight side chairs and two carver armchairs. Shaped cresting rails sit above pierced interlaced splats, giving the backs a decorative yet open appearance.

Square-section legs and connecting stretchers provide a restrained contrast to the flowing splat designs. The two carvers repeat the same detailing, with gently shaped arms carried on curved supports.

Upholstery & Presentation

The seats are upholstered in muted sage-green fabric, contrasting softly with the warm timber. The upholstery shows marks, staining and wear from previous use.

Reupholstery would suit a purchaser seeking a fresh finish and offers the opportunity to choose a fabric for a particular room.

Catalogue Note

The labels are recorded as a feature of the chairs. Without further documentary evidence, they do not establish manufacture by the firm. The accompanying table has not been confirmed as carrying a corresponding label.

Purchased a beautiful 19th century French kingwood display cabinet from Hawkins Antiques. I am delighted with my purchase and would love to purchase from here again in the future! Lee provided excellent communication with very quick and thorough responses. Delivery was arranged extremely quickly and the delivery duo did a brilliant job up a narrow staircase, getting the cabinet into position safely and without issue. Highly recommend Lee and all at Hawkins Antiques!

Our house was built in 1820, so I have been slowly acquiring furniture from the same period. The piece is perfect & arrived very quickly too.

We purchased a table from Hawkins Antique and it is absolutely stunning and a mint condition! Delivery was very fast and the delivery team were fantastic and really went the extra mile to get the table into the house - it wasn't simple due to our narrow front door, but the guys managed to get it in, keeping the table safe along the way! Highly recommend - very happy! Made another purchase already!
