Mid Century Large Extending Formica Vintage Table

Vintage Formica dining table, a very rare design with a gorgeous grey wood grain pattern, with a contrasting trim. It is a really fantastic table, extending to almost 5ft. It is of nice quality, heavy with a veneered backing, which you see when the leaves are folded down. It is a very versatile table, seating up to 6 comfortably, eight at a push.

We have lightly restored the table, removing old marks and dirt, as the legs are in good condition we have not stripped off the original finish as it is a nice dark tone, which blend well with the trim on the top and veneered edges.

There are some light scratches in places, but no chips, in great condition.

Please take time to look at all images as these form a good visual description.

The Dimensions are:

Folded Up; 350mm, 930mm fully extended to; 1515mm almost 5ft

Height; 740mm

Our Restoration Process

All of our tables are restored, we ensure everything works as it should. Sometimes the springs don't work or the formica has lifted. So we ensure everything is as good as it can be and take time to clean up hinges and handles.

The wooden frames after many years of use have often been left in a bit of a grimy and dirty state. We take off all the dirt and original finish, applying a new finish. The result, you are essentially getting a lovely original piece but in an as new condition. The original varnished finish that these tables often have is also a little bit dated in my opinion and hides the beautiful wood grain, so we don’t apply a varnish. The finish we apply protects and keeps the wood replenished.

The Formica tops themselves can’t be restored, so these may have signs of age, light scratches or minor chips unless otherwise stated.
