About the Item

There is no mistaking the style and sophisticated design of this exquisite dining set comprising a rare English antique Victorian pollard oak extending dining table Circa 1870 in date and a set of sixteen vintage bar back dining chairs. This stunning dining set will stand out in your dining or conference room and will definitely become a key piece in your furnishing collection. The styles that developed throughout the early 19th Century were an extension of the current political situations but also in accordance with the needs of the rising middle class during the industrial revolution. The amazing table has seven leaf extensions and can comfortably seat sixteen. It has been hand-crafted from solid oak and the d ended rectangular top is in Pollard oak which is seen in the intricate burr on the table top. The seven leaves can be added or removed as required to suit the occasion by a special winding mechanism, labelled Joseph Fitter, Patentee, Britannia Works, 210 Cheapside, Birmingham. The leaves can be easily stored away when not required. The table is raised on six elegant carved and turned and fluted legs that terminate in their original brass caps and castors. The beautiful Vintage set of sixteen Regency Revival dining chairs date from the late 20th Century. These chairs have been masterfully crafted throughout and the finish and attention to detail on display are truly breathtaking. The set comprises fourteen sidechairs and two armchairs, all of which feature an attractive bar back design and 'drop in' seats that are upholstered in the finest claret damask. Whatever the function of this gorgeous dining set, it will make a profound impression on your dinner guests or clients and will receive the maximum amount of attention wherever it is placed. Condition: In excellent condition having been beautifully cleaned, polished and waxed, and the chairs reupholstered, in our workshops, please see photos for confirmation.

It has been common in Europe since medieval times and is practised today in urban areas worldwide, primarily to maintain trees at a predetermined height. The bole of the tree, constantly cut back over a period of years, will eventually form a lump, or ‘burr’, which when sawn for veneer, gives a lovely grained, swirling figure. The effect is similar to that of burr walnut with its distinctive speckled grain. Burrs, or ‘burls’, are growths which appear on the side of tree trunks, resulting from a tree undergoing some form of stress. They may be caused by an injury, virus or fungus. During the 19th century great strides were made in the mechanisation of cabinet making. Marc Isambard Brunel [ Isambard Kingdom’s father] built the first steam driven saw mill, and invented a circular saw that could be used to cut veneers thinly and evenly for the first time. He also developed the first hydraulic veneer press. The figured wood cut from burrs and pollards is notoriously difficult to cut and lay: the wild grain which makes it so attractive results in a very delicate, brittle veneer. The new machines enabled the Victorian craftsmen to make the most of these beautiful timbers. Our reference: A2464b
