Know before you buy
This table features a specific gateleg mechanism that only extends to support one of the two drop leaves. The other side does not have a corresponding gateleg, meaning you cannot fully extend both sides simultaneously for a larger surface area.
As an antique piece, this table shows signs of its history, which may include minor surface scratches, wood patina, or slight imperfections in the finish. These characteristics are expected for a vintage item and contribute to its unique character rather than being considered defects.
Yes, the table is designed with built-in leaf storage, allowing you to keep the drop leaf mechanism organized and compact when the table is not fully extended.
Because the gateleg mechanism only supports one side, this table is best suited for use as a console, a breakfast nook table, or a side table where only one leaf is needed. It is not intended to function as a fully extended, symmetrical dining table.
All sales for this item are final. Because this is a unique antique piece, we recommend reviewing all provided details and images carefully before completing your purchase.
