A banquet table?

8 years ago

Are these three connected parts? And is this all or nothing, i.e. full length or not? Never seen something like this.

    This is a configuration seen in the Georgian and Federal periods with a rectangular gateleg table that can be used separately in the middle and two round end tables with gateleg leaves that can be used paired together, and all three can be used as a very long table. Sometimes the ends are plain demilunes. (Which could be used as a round table).

    These would have been pushed up against the wall most of the time and pulled out for use.

    The ends of this assemblage belong together but the rectangular table in the middle did not originate with these ends.

    That doesn't mean it hasn't been a set for a long time though.
