Description:
This is a fine quality large antique Victorian loo table, in stunning burr walnut, decorated with stunning boxwood marquetry, standing on a four-pillar pedestal, circa 1860, in excellent original condition. Ideal for use a large centre table in the hallway or dining table. This Victorian oval dining table top is decorated with symmetrical boxwood floral marquetry, comprising four floral sections, united by twin string inlay borders. The top is finished with a cavetto moulding and inset frieze below. The Victorian loo table sits on a fine quality four-pillar pedestal, comprising four tapered fluted columns, decorated with bulbous and foliate carvings, with a stunning twin-directional fluted central finial. The pedestal is supported by four sturdy cabriole legs, terminating on scroll toes. The Victorian loo table retains its original working brassware, which consists of a sprung locking mechanism on the underside of the table, along with 2 large threaded brass bolts. This allows the top to be lifted into a vertical position, for storage purposes and also be detached from the pedestal for safe transportation purposes.
The table can accommodate between 4 – 6 persons and is sufficiently tall enough to comfortably fit your legs underneath. It is also sufficiently wide enough to accommodate serving dishes in the centre of the table.
This Victorian walnut table would look superb in either a contemporary or traditional setting, from the hallway to the dining room. This oval table would certainly grace any home or office and is a great investment, as it is extremely functional. So don’t miss out your chance to own a lovely piece of furniture.

Once you have purchased an item, we will contact you by email and/or telephone and provide you with a provisional delivery date, in order for you to confirm if it is suitable for you.

We will also provide you with our shippers’ contact details, in case you need to contact the driver on the day of delivery. It’s helpful if you can provide us with both the landline and mobile telephone number, in case the driver cannot reach you on one of the numbers on the day of delivery, they can contact you on your alternative number.
