Jacobean Farm Tables

A rare English 17th-century oak refectory table. Charles II-period, ca 1675. The three-plank cleated detachable top is of superb color, figuring and patination. Raised on six baluster supports united by stretchers. The frieze is guilloche-carved on all four sides: this demonstrates that this table can be free-standing. Many of these were only carved on three sides. This versatile refectory table can be used as a hall table, dining table, serving table, or a wonderful kitchen table. A number of early oak pieces which we have sold have harmonized very well with modern interiors. A similar-sized refectory table (in generally poor condition) sold for £17,000.00 plus buyer's premium, in Duke's auctioneers ATHELHAMPTON HOUSE sale, Puddletown, Dorset, UK, 9th Oct, 2019. Nb. The turning of the supports on this antique table indicates a development away from an earlier, heavy, carved bulbous leg, to a simpler baluster leg of the late-seventeenth century. However the guilloche-carved frieze is a hint of an earlier period. Some historic restoration commensurate with 350 years of use. Overall in superb condition. Dimensions: 8’5’' L. (256.5 cm) 2’8’' W. (81 cm) 2'7'’ H. (79 cm). Literature: R. W. Symonds 'The Present State of Old English Furniture...

This is a truly grand and powerful piece. A large, heavy Baroque-style dining table, built in the early 1900s, likely around the 1930s–1940s. It’s made entirely from solid oak – not just any oak, but oak that has been laid in a bog to develop a patina that mimics the depth and character of 300-year-old timber. The result is an incredible surface texture, rich with age and soul. The table has always belonged to the same family and has been carefully preserved over the years. The tabletop (3.5cm - 1.38inches) rests freely on the base, but due to its sheer weight, it sits firm and solid – you could literally dance on it. It’s what one might call a classic vineyard or refectory table – farmhouse in style, with strong English Baroque and 17th/18th-century influences. Sometimes referred to as a Jacobean oak...
