AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Breakfast table with drop-leaf leaves in solid oak, made in England during the 20th century, following the William & Mary style with characteristic elements of Barley Twist design. The structure features a round top divided into three sections: a central fixed section and two drop-leaf sides that allow expanding the usable surface, typical of drop-leaf tables used in versatile domestic spaces.
The spiral turned legs — the distinctive “barley twist” — evoke the Baroque taste inherited from the William & Mary period (late 17th century), reinterpreted in the 20th century with a decorative and functional approach. These legs are connected by horizontal stretchers that reinforce stability and provide visual balance. The oak finish shows a warm patina with visible grain and signs of wear that enhance its authenticity and age.
This type of table, with compact proportions and a folding design, was ideal for breakfasts or intimate gatherings, and reflects the transition between aristocratic-cut furniture and the practical needs of Victorian bourgeois life. Its value lies both in the quality of the carving and in the preservation of the historicist style, making it an appealing piece for collectors and lovers of traditional English furniture.
Certified shipping and good packaging.
