French Cerused Oak Extendable Dining Table, 1940s

$12,000.00

A substantial 1940s French dining table in solid oak with classic trestle construction. The rectangular top expands via two pull-out leaves, revealing generous proportions ideal for hosting.

The silhouette is grounded by carved pedestal legs and a turned stretcher—details that nod to traditional French woodworking while the cerused finish lightens the profile.

A versatile piece, scaled for both daily use and larger gatherings.

DIMENSIONS: 58.75"W x 39.25"D x 29.5"H

ADDITIONAL DIMENSIONS: 111.5"OAW

ORIGIN: France

PERIOD: 1940s

MATERIALS: Oak

CONDITION: Great vintage condition. The leaves fit securely and glide smoothly. The apron, joinery, and base are structurally sound. The piece has undergone approximately 2.5 hours of professional woodworking and refinishing by our restoration team, ensuring the leaves rest level while preserving the integrity and character of the original finish. Light, even wear remains, consistent with age and careful use.
