A beautiful extending ‘pull-out’ teak dining room ‘Fonseca’ table designed by John Herbert for Younger. Highly influenced by Scandinavian design.
The table extends with a fold out leaf as shown creating a large family dining table easily seating six. The top has a lovely warm grain that continues with the fold out leaf.
Younger were renowned for their high quality workmanship and mainly retailed through Heals. Featuring tapered solid afromosia legs and sides with a stunning teak veneered top. The table extends by simply pulling the ends apart which reveals the stored extension leaves which fold up and out, the table is then pushed back together.
This range appears in the 1964 catalogue but was taken out of production by 1968 when the Younger range was considerably rationalized to reduce costs and prices to compete in a changing market.
In good vintage condition. The table has a nice colour and grain with no obvious marks or damage. The fold-over leaf has a brass catch to hold it in place so that it doesn’t move when the table is turned over.
