Queen Anne Rosewood Table & Chairs

John from Greerton - Parkvale

Craftsman made, all solid timber, no veneers. It has a label underneath the table stating where & when & by whom it was made in Australia, which I forgot to take a picture of. Main need is repolishing, some minor repairs to do to the chairs, but nothing that cannot be done 'in the garage'. The seats are sound although the coverings need either cleaning or recovering.
Table is an extension table, with an internal folding leaf that tucks up underneath completely out of the way. It has been in storage for 4 years, and unfortunately I don't have the space to restore it myself.
Sorry about some of the pics being wrong orientation: no matter what I do they just keep coming out as they are.

Price: $250
