Item Description
Charming 17th Century Charles II Oak Gateleg Table with Bobbin Turned Legs
A wonderfully characterful Charles II period oak gateleg table, dating to around 1680. Of excellent colour and patina, this provincial piece combines practicality with authentic 17th-century charm.
Crafted in solid oak, the table features an oval top with incised line decoration to the border. The two drop leaves are supported on swing-out gate legs, and the whole piece is raised on classic bobbin turned legs, terminating in original “hourglass” type feet.
This is a particularly useful and versatile table: it will comfortably seat 6–8 people when fully open, yet has a neat, compact footprint with the leaves down. The single gate leg is cleverly positioned so as not to impede seating, making it genuinely practical for everyday use.
With its warm, aged surface, attractive oak figuring and honest wear, this table has all the charm expected of a 17th-century country house piece. Solid in construction, with good joints throughout, it is offered waxed, polished and ready to place in the home.
Ideal for a country kitchen, dining room or any characterful interior, this is a superb example of an early oak gateleg table that is both decorative and highly functional for modern living.
