IMPORTANT SEYMOUR BOSTON MAHOGANY CUMBERLAND ACTION DINING TABLE
 

Important Seymour Boston Mahogany Cumberland Action Dining Table (F767)

Robert Mussey's book "The Furniture Masterworks of John & Thomas Seymour" illustrates an identical dining table on page 326. These dining tables are quite rare with all known examples coming from Boston circa 1810. They are incredibly practical to use. Folded up against a wall they take up very little room. But with the drop leaves up they form a table that seats up to 8. The two leaf supports on each side easily roll out to support the top. All three sections of the top are single mahogany boards. Note how the reeding of the top, pedestals and legs leads to a beautifully integrated design. This dining table is in excellent original structural condition
including the original brass casters.

Dimensions are: H. 28 3/4"    L. 53 1/2"    W. 62 3/8" (only 16 1/4" closed)
