Mid Victorian Burr Oak 12 Seater Dining Table
19th century mid-Victorian English burr oak 12 seater telescopic extending dining table.
The D-ended rectangular top with a double moulded edge is made with two original leaves that can be added or subtracted depending on the size needed.
The table is fitted and extends on a corkscrew mechanism that allows the telescopic oak frame to extend with the use of the original wooden hand winder. The table is raised on four reeded and fluted turned legs with brass caps and ceramic castors that are impressed with the maker''s mark, ''Cope & Collinson Patent''.
The table retains a good colour and the medullary rays from the quarter-sawn cut of the oak produce the attractive ‘tiger grain’ pattern to the top which adds to the overall quality of the table.
The table has possibly only ever had two owners from manufacture: Butler and Tanner from new, who used the table as a board room table, and then a private owner until the present day.
