Top with “D” shape drop-leaves, thumb-molded rule joints, top on plain apron; block and turned tapering legs resting on pad feet…full pads; foot is defined by a turned concentric ring creating a stocking-like foot generally associated with Pennsylvania triffid feet. The woods assign this table to New England.

12”, the height is an appropriate 27”. The top with pinched corners is on a carved and
shaped apron joining cabriole legs resting on pad feet. The leaves hang straight, overall
excellent condition; one hinge likely replaced.

Table has no replacements or restoration; should be tuned-up to tighten area where glued joinery is failing; we are able to have this done before shipping. (Dimensions: 27" H, 12 by 37" top when closed, 39.75 by 37" top when open.)
