A substantial gateleg dining table constructed from richly figured sheesham, the oval top with twin drop leaves supported by a pair of swinging gateleg supports. Raised on eight turned legs, the table displays the dramatic grain and warm colouring characteristic of Indian rosewood. Combining practicality with traditional form, the table folds to a compact size when not in use and comfortably seats four to six diners when extended.
India, late 19th century
