A super example of a mid century extending dining table & 4 chairs by White and Newton. This super table has a built-in, swing-out extension leaf that allows it to be extended when extra guests need to be accommodated. The table is made from teak and works well from 4 people up to 8. The makers label is still present on the hidden leaf of the table.
Accompanied by the original 4 dining chairs with the original olive green fabric.
In good clean original condition. The shades of difference in colour from the table leaves is not too noticeable and the swing and slide mechanism is a little stiff due to lack of use over the years. The table top does show signs of previous use consistent with general wear and tear. The chairs are solid and sturdy and the original seat pads are free from any rips / staining. Please review the photos – happy to answer any questions.
Measurements:
W129 x D84cm x H74cm (Extends to 198cm)
Chair: H71cm x D44cm x W49cm; Floor to Seat H44cm
White and Newton of Portsmouth were on the cutting edge of furniture design and production in Britain throughout the mid 20th century. Under the design direction of the talented Arthur Edwards, the firm produced stunning high end furniture often defined by its clean modern lines and stark linear form. The company favoured the use of teak as a staple design material but also on occasion embraced luxurious timbers such as rosewood for its high end aesthetic. White and Newton furniture was a hit with trendsetters of the day and today the timeless designs remain cool and contemporary.
