H.MAWER & STEPHENSONS, LONDON this is stamped on the inside extension rails. H.Mawer & Stephenson. H. Mawer & Stephenson are listed in The Dictionary of English Furniture Makers, London based. They had a large premises at one point in the Fulham Road, London.


The table is in super condition and is ready for any home or office.  The dining table has no major cracks to the top and all leg joints are firm.  Under frame has nice moulding to the edge.


The polish is in super condition.  We have professionally lightly cleaned the whole table and waxed it, so fully ready to use.   A great item that has stood the test of time.


Estimated age around 1860-1880.


Made from some of the very best heavy solid timbers on the planet, handmade by master craftsmen of the time.


The top has a superb Mahogany colour, very even across the whole top and leaves. 


The table winder thread is made by Joseph Fitter of Birmingham as shown. The table opens and closes very well.


The legs are a classic turned shape with nice carved reeded detail. Sits on a set of brass with brown china wheels.


I have taken a lot of pictures to try to show all angles.


The table is a wind out to increase its length, you can add the leaves three, two or just one. The table can then be closed down when more space is required making it very adaptable for your family or office requirements.


As with any vintage/antique item, there will be some signs of usage and age related wear and tear only to be expected.  I am sure the new owner will be delighted with this table.
