The lower part is reinforced with a profiled slat with richly turned cones. The table is very sturdy and even when unfolded, it is stable thanks to the central slat and folding legs at the ends. These folding tables were very popular in the second half of the 19th century, when large family celebrations were held in large numbers, and these tables adapt perfectly to the number of people - the unfolding is smooth and the table is suitable for 6 to 18 people. Originally, ordinary hammered boards were inserted into the table and a tablecloth was draped over the table, these boards did not survive with the table - they are not entirely practical, we can have the smoothing parts made on request. It is ideal to insert blockboard boards, which are veneered on both sides with oak veneer, lengths of about 1 meter each, and thus adjust the table size to the number of people (solid wood boards quickly warp when humidity and temperature change, so we do not recommend them). Dimensions: height 73cm, width 127cm, width of the unfolded table 425cm, depth 100cm See less
