This is the pinnacle of British mid twentieth century furniture design. This model rarely comes up on the market, let alone with this number of chairs and in this condition.

The condition is superb for its age, we have just had the dining table stripped and re-polished to a very high standard. It has amazing grain patterns and a beautiful colour tone. There is an extra leaf that comes with this to extend the dining area significantly. When closed this can comfortably seat the eight chairs, when opened it can seat up to twelve.

The chairs have also been recently polished and re-upholstered in beautiful cream Isle of Bute wool fabric. They are clean, sturdy and sound, also with a gorgeous colour and stunning grain patterns.
