Vintage 1960s Teak Extending Dining Table by Beautility
Well-made, unfussy and with practical proportions, this is a reliable, hard-working every-day dining table from British manufacturer, Beautility. It dates from the 1960s and extends with a separate section inserted into the middle, taking it from four diners to six. With a neutral design, it will partner easily with dining chairs of different styles and woods. A cracking midcentury piece at your service.
Description
This authentic, vintage dining table is ‘sold as seen’. Overall it is in good – very good, used condition. The table has been checked, cleaned and beeswax polished but otherwise the finish is all original. There are some very minor knocks and scuffs but nothing to flag, just light wear. The extension section is entirely separate and it’s in very good order. To extend the table, the two sides are pulled apart and the extension slotted into place before the two sides are closed. All mechanisms are in very good working order, sliding with ease. As you can see in our photos, the extension section is a touch darker in tone than the rest of the table. This is a commonly seen on vintage dining tables and it’s because this piece isn’t in such regular use and hidden from sunlight. The table is well designed and crafted, solid and sturdy. The maker’s label is no longer visible but this is a well-documented table by British maker, Beautility.
