English Victorian era, burled walnut drop leaf Sutherland table. Two drop leaves with an oval shaped edge, are supported by elegant central turned baluster-form columns with two swing out gate legs and standing on attractive scroll feet with original metal castors.

Called a “Sutherland” table which is described as a compact, Victorian-era folding table with a narrow centre and two large, drop-down leaves that create a generous surface when extended, named after Harriet, Duchess of Sutherland; it’s known for its space-saving design, often used for tea service or games, featuring gate legs, turned supports, and typically made from walnut or mahogany with elegant casters. 

Having a lovely oval extended shape and burr walnut top, the table fully extended is surprisingly large and sturdy as these tables were originally used to hold a full tea service which would include cups, saucers and tea pot. They were also quite often used for games playing and writing for the Victorian Lady.

A very versatile Victorian table and a beautiful example of burled walnut.
