Lot 461: A Jacobean Revival Oak Gateleg Dining Table
This is an early 20th-century oak gateleg dining table in the Jacobean Revival style. The piece features a rectangular solid oak top with two large D-shaped drop leaves, designed to form an oval surface when fully extended. The oak displays visible quartersawn grain and ray flake patterning across the top, which is finished with a simple moulded edge. The supporting base consists of eight legs, including four fixed central supports and four gatelegs that swing out to support the leaves. The legs are of turned baluster form, terminating in square block feet and joined by a low-set peripheral stretcher rail of square section. There are small temporary identification stickers present on the top and edge.
Condition report:
The table remains in good antique condition with a dark patina throughout. The top shows signs of regular use, including surface scratches, small indentations, and areas of light staining or finish wear, such as water or heat marks. The structure and joinery appear sound and sturdy.
