Catching up iwth a dear friend for the first time in a year! Swapping all the news and goss! Planning and plotting our next adventure together.
Feeling like even though lots has happened in a year it is still the same whenever we are together!
Solid extension table in need of restoration. Table top has some scars and imperfections that are restorable, (see photos). There is a written date on 7/12/8 which is probably the manufacture date. No borer very solid. Inspection welcome. See my listing for other oak furniture piece.This table was in better nick, although a rather nice 'hole' in the tabletop which wasn't mentioned or noticeable in the photos! There are also serious water marks at the base of the legs which indicates its been sitting somewhere wet for a long time. Shame as it's a lovely shape. I guess it outlasted its use somewhere and then most likely stored down in the garage. The black stain you can see is ink!
I particularly liked the bit about borer having made awesome detail! And it actually looked better in the Trade Me photo than when I saw it for the first time. One has to wonder where it's been and how it came to be so neglected. There were loads of borer holes in the table top and also the legs.Gorgeous antique Kauri Table, has end draw for cutlery etc, 760H 1220L 855W, borer have made awesome detail on top and legs, has been treated.
