This magnificent Capstan table from the Guinness estate in Ireland that I found in the the Baker Stately home collection changes in size from 70cm to 87 cm. Here is a quote from their catalogue -
-”The Guinness William IV mahogany Capstan dining table, the sectioned swirl mahogany top with fluted frieze, extending with eight additional stripe mahogany leaves, by a mechanical turning action similar to a ship’s wheel; the massive fluted central baluster supported by four curved and fluted legs terminating in fine cast and gilded brass toes. Irish circa: 1840.”
