About the Item

Introducing the exquisite early 19th century elliptical drop-leaf hunt table, an elegant piece of furniture with a rich history and functional design.

When the leaves are down, the table top measures 16.5 inches wide, making it perfect for smaller spaces. The elliptical shape of the table top adds a unique touch to the design, setting it apart from other traditional dining tables. The leaves of this drop-leaf table are firmly affixed with eight solid brass hinges with slotted screws, ensuring that they are sturdy and secure when extended. The gate legs pivot from the center of the skirt, providing additional stability and support, making it a versatile piece of furniture that can accommodate different numbers of guests depending on the occasion. Historically, hunt tables were used as a convenient and functional piece of furniture for hunting parties in the countryside. These tables were designed to be portable, easy to move around, and could be quickly set up for a meal or refreshments in the middle of a hunt. During a hunt, these tables would be set up in a designated area, and guests would gather around to enjoy a meal or refreshments. They were also commonly used in the home as versatile dining tables, as their design allowed them to be adjusted to accommodate different numbers of guests. Today, this early 19th century elliptical drop-leaf hunt table is considered a valuable antique and is prized for its functional design, historic significance, and timeless style. It is sure to make a stunning addition to any antique furniture collection, a treasured piece of history that exudes elegance and sophistication.
