Long French Oak & Elm Farmhouse Table

A beautiful 19th century French farmhouse table, this piece is all about the glorious wood, having an elm top and an oak base. At nearly 3 metres in length, it will easily seat a family get-together and is reminiscent of a rustic French summer meal in the sun. - Sturdy, solid piece with large, square section legs and H shaped central stretcher between. - Breadboard ends to the elm top. - Lovely grain and colour to the smooth waxed wood. - Drawer placed centrally in one of the long sides. This is a piece for a large room and will look wonderful in a good-sized country kitchen, but will equally provide enough space for special occasion family dining. In good condition showing wear consistent with age and use. There is an attractive rustic crack in the top towards one end which radiates from a knot in the wood, but there is no movement, the top is solid and it is a characterful flaw.
