Compact Vintage 1960s Teak Extending Dining Table

A classic midcentury teak dining table. Round, tapered legs, gently curved sides and a beautiful grain across the table top, it’s robustly made for every day dining. We believe it’s a British-made table by Dalescraft but we’ve not been able to definitively attribute it. Regardless, it’s handsome and well-constructed with the extension section residing underneath when not in use. What we love about this particular table is that its proportions are actually very neat when not extended at just a touch over 107cm in width. It makes it a solid choice for a kitchen / diner or smaller dining room but with the option to grow for extra guests. The finish here is all original too so it’s clearly been taken well care of in its former life.

Description

This original, vintage dining table is ‘sold as seen’. Overall it is in very good, used condition. The table has been checked, cleaned and buffed with a natural beeswax polish but otherwise the finish is all original and it’s in great order. The extension is housed underneath the table and is accessed by pulling it out at one end. The two table halves are pulled apart and the extension is inserted into the gap and the two sides pushed back together to create a seamless table top. All mechanisms are in good working order. The extension is a touch darker than the two sides, a common issue with vintage tables. It’s simply because it’s been used less and hasn’t been as exposed to sunlight so hasn’t faded and worn in quite the same way. Overall, the table is in very good order with just minor signs of use, the odd dent here and there. It’s a nicely-made piece that’s solid and sturdy. Sadly we’ve not been able to 100% attribute it but there is a good chance it’s a Dalescraft piece and it dates from the 1960s.
