A generous farmhouse table constructed entirely from elm, the base has tapered legs and a decorative shaping to each corner, the three plank top is cleated and pegged. The top has a wonderful scrubbed milky surface which is lightly waxed and contrasts beautifully with the warm caramel patina of the base. English farmhouse tables are becoming very scarce and this is an excellent example. A comfortable eight seater.
The condition is good, there is some historic worm as to be expected with elm but this is long dead and has been treated for peace of mind. The top has an old patch repair and some old battle scars but the table is sturdy and ready for use.
English. Circa 1800
Height 78.5 cm ( 31”)
Width 198 cm ( 78”)
Depth 79.2cm ( 31 1/4’)
