This lot comprises five traditional oak style dining items, including one extendable pedestal dining table and four matching chairs. The table features a circular top with a book-matched grain pattern, suggesting an oak veneer finish, which extends to an oval shape via an internal butterfly leaf mechanism stored beneath the surface. The top is supported by a central turned pedestal terminating in four splayed and reeded legs. The four chairs are designed in a Windsor style with lath backs, turned spindles, and a central decorative splat featuring a heart-shaped cutout. Each chair has a contoured seat and turned legs joined by an H-stretcher. The suite includes four detachable cream-coloured tie-on seat cushions with a grey and brown botanical floral print. A small black adhesive label is present on the underside of one chair seat, although the characters are not legible as a name or manufacturer.
