Late Regency period mahogany dining table formed from a drop leaf Pembroke format so quite literally can be closed away to a side table, yet extends out with any combination of leaves to seat up to 16 people. Solid figured D ended top with thumb moulding, opening via banks of runners to incorporate leaves and standing on very fine Gillows reeded legs terminating in brass casters. Very versatile table from the rare early experimental period of runner system innovation. Measures 156" long fully extended by 50" wide.
