Finally, the legs of both ‘D ends’ can be extended, such that both drop-in leaves can be attached, in order to create the full-size dining table, which will comfortable seat up to 8 people.  This ability to be configured in so many different ways allow the table to be utilised in the best way possible according to room size and intended use.  The table retains its eight brass clips, which are used to connect the various leaves together, and the underside of the table retains the original steel strap hinges and locking latch mechanism, which is rare to see.  The chairs in the picture are not included in the price.

The table boasts a stunning rich brown mahogany colour.
