10 foot walnut English Georgian pedestal dining table
Set 10 matching Queen Anne dining chairs

You are viewing a gorgeous English walnut Georgian George III pedestal table that measures ten feet when fully extended with a set of matching Queen Anne chairs also in walnut. I hope the photos do this classic set some justice, it’s certainly more impressive in the flesh.

The table comes with two leaves each measuring 24 inches so you there are various different size options – you can even use the two pedestal ends together on their own. It’s great for different functions and sized dinner parties. The veneer to the walnut is superb, all the grains and whorls to the wood are really excellent and of the highest quality.

The base is hand carved and in the manner of George Bullock, a famous English 18th Century cabinet maker. The table is solid and sturdy, wobble free and ready for home use right away. The finish to the wood is also superb, scratch and ding free, ready for dining from. We will ship to anywhere in the world. We bought this from a dealer in Taplow, Buckinghamshire. This was hand made here in England to centuries old traditions.

The piece has nine drawers, one of which is a double file drawer. You can only imagine the amount of time and craftmanship that would have gone into a desk like this. The desk is also unusual in that at the back there are two cupboards that open out so there is yet more storage space for all those files and books – you can see this with our photos.

Aesthetically it has a dainty, stylish quality to it but it is also very practical with ample work surface space and the ten brass handled drawers to the front for all your storage needs. The piece is offered in perfect condition and ready for home use right away. The great thing also is that this can be free standing in the middle of a room as the back is great to display.
