Original Vintage 1960s Walnut Extending Dining Table by Gordon Russell

A fine piece of quality British midcentury design, this rectangular dining table dates from the early 1960s and comes with an exemplary pedigree, designed and made by Gordon Russell. Its proportions and design are neat and tidy, comfortably seating four and making it perfect for the kitchen or small dining area. Pull out the extension which resides cleverly underneath and insert in the middle to increase its capacity to six diners. The finish here is all original, such is its fantastic order and the stripes of wood grain elevate this table from the ordinary, with golden walnut stripes running the width of the table top to meet different wood on borders and legs.

Description

This authentic, vintage dining table is ‘sold as seen’. Overall it is in very good, used condition. The table has been cleaned and wax polished but otherwise the finish is all original. It carries some light scuffs and superficial marks here and there on the table top and the legs, as you would expect with a vintage piece of this age, but overall this is minor – do browse our photos for an accurate sense of tone and condition. It is solid and sturdy with no wobbles or signs of repair. The extension leaf pulls out from underneath the table at one end. The two halves are then pulled apart, the extension inserted and the two sides closed to create a seamless table-top. As you can see the extension is a touch darker than the rest of the table-top, a common thing as quite simply it has less exposure to sunlight. All mechanisms are in very good, working order. The Russell of Bromley maker’s sticker is still in place on the underside and the table dates from sixties. Do browse our photos for an accurate sense of its super condition and tone. If you have any questions or would like to view the table, please do get in touch.
