We offer a wide range of antique dining table and chairs sets. It is unfortunately the case that, whilst antique dining tables often survive in excellent condition across the decades, often requiring nothing much more than a French Polish to restore them to their former glory, antique dining chairs, on the other hand, often do not fare so well.

They are, after all, subjected to much more rigorous use and often, not surprisingly, they require reupholstering and sometimes even more serious work of a structural nature before we can offer them for sale to our customers.

First find the table, then think about the chairs

When you have found the perfect antique dining table, the one that really fits the bill completely, we come to the question of chairs. If you have purchased an antique table it is often the case that the original chairs are not available or that the set is incomplete. We do, however, still manage to acquire antique dining table and chair sets and offer them for sale, so do keep an eye out and visit this category regularly.

It’s also well worth registering for our free weekly alert service which will give you the heads up when there is a new arrival in your categories of choice.

From a single antique dining chair right up to a dozen or even more - complete with the antique dining table

We can supply everything from a single chair up to a complete set with both armchairs and dining chairs in many of the most popular designs throughout the history of furniture making. Very often these will be supplied as table and chair sets, with the chairs carefully selected to complement the table.

You and your guests will often be seated at the table for quite a long period so it is important to be comfortable. So take a look at our stock of antique dining table and chair sets or give us a call – we’ll help you to find the right dining chair for your table. If you buy antique chairs that need reupholstering then we are able to do that in our own workshops and in a variety of different materials and finishes to suit your decor and other items of furniture.

Boardroom or Conference Room - We Have the Perfect Table and Chair Set for You

Yes, those of you looking for a large dining table for use as a conference or boardroom table - we have just the right combination for you. We supply large antique tables and a superb range of bespoke tables, made by our own craftsmen using traditional methods and materials. There’s even an option to customise the table with our bespoke marquetry service - see here for more details.

When you just can’t find exactly what you need in the way of antique dining chairs

We have a solution for you - our own craftsmen still produce period style dining chairs, using age old methods and materials, in a choice of attractive period styles. This is particularly useful if you want to seat a larger number of people at a large antique dining table. If you need a larger quantity of chairs and there are no antique sets that fit the bill, then this could well be the solution.

Pay us a visit if you can - our London showroom staff are ready to welcome you and answer your questions

Not only will you be made most welcome, but you will be able to see our range of antique dining table and chair sets together with our bespoke and contemporary table and chair ranges. If you want to try a particular combination or see these magnificent tables with your own eyes then a visit is just the thing for you.

The north London showroom is open for viewings every weekday from 10am to 5pm and on occasional Saturdays - please see our homepage for the next Saturday opening date.

We appreciate however that such a visit may not always be possible, so our staff are always on hand to answer your email and telephone enquiries. We always provide a comprehensive set of photographs with every product listing and we encourage you to take a close look at these. Also pay close attention to the size data provided and make sure that your newly-acquired antique dining table and chair set will fit into the room you have in mind.

Bespoke Handmade Burr Walnut & Marquetry Dining Table & 8 Chairs

Bespoke Handmade Burr Walnut & Marquetry Dining Table & 8 Chairs

This is a stunning bespoke handmade dining set comprising a 7ft dining table with a set of eight matching chairs in stunning burr walnut with exquisite marquetry decoration. The fantastic bespoke handmade burr walnut marquetry dining table is made from burr walnut which  has a beautiful grain and the hand cut floral marquetry decoration compliments it beautifully.  The  exquisite hand cut inlaid floral marquetry decorations of bouquets of flowers, vases and garlands  are cut from different veneers  which are of various colours. To highlight the marquetry, as well as the natural grain of the wood, this table has been expertly  French polished by hand. It has one 60cm  leaf which  can be added or removed as required to suit the occasion by a special winding mechanism, and it stands on elegantly carved and inlaid legs which terminate in brass cap castors. The set of eight matching chairs  comprises six side chairs and a pair of armchairs.  These fabulous chairs are made from solid walnut with burr walnut and  marquetry decoration to match the table, they have drop in seats that can be removed in warm weather to reveal the caned seats below for cooler dining. This stunning dining set will make a profound impression on your dinner guests  and will receive the maximum amount of attention wherever it is placed. Condition: This is a new bespoke handmade table and chair set.   The making of a marquetry masterpiece The making of a bespoke marquetry dining table involves many phases - carried out with the highest level of attention to detail - by third generation master craftsmen in our workshop in Italy. First the design of the marquetry is drawn on paper. The paper is then glued on to a sheet of plywood and the veneers are attached to the underside with pins. There can be a maximum of 16 sheets of veneer.  In this case, there are 8 for the burr walnut and 8 for the marquetry. With a fret cutter, using a very fine blade, the marquetry is cut out, using the burr walnut and various coloured veneers to compose the flowers. Today we use an electric fret cutter, although in the 18th and 19th centuries the cutters were operated by treadles. All of the cut out pieces of veneer are then placed on a large tray. They are then singed by being placed in hot sand in a red hot crucible. This singed effect gives different shades to the various veneers, depending on how deep and how long they are left in the hot sand. The various items of veneer are then inserted into the burr walnut one by one. After they are inserted, tape is placed over them to keep them in place. They are then turned over and a sheet of glued paper is placed over them all, after which the tape can be removed. The prepared solid mahogany table is then veneered with mahogany - twice on the under side, horizontally and vertically, and then once on the top side. The prepared marquetry and burr walnut sheet is then placed on top and the whole table top is placed into a hot press, which glues the sheet to the top. The backing paper can then be sanded off. The table top is then veneered 4 times to prevent the top from bowing or warping. Once the assembly is complete, the table is French polished by hand using natural products, resulting in a stunning bespoke masterpiece of marquetry.

Today we use an electric fret cutter, although in the 18th and 19th centuries the cutters were operated by treadles. All of the cut out pieces of veneer are then placed on a large tray. They are then singed by being placed in hot sand in a red hot crucible. This singed effect gives different shades to the various veneers, depending on how deep and how long they are left in the hot sand. The various items of veneer are then inserted into the burr walnut one by one. After they are inserted, tape is placed over them to keep them in place. They are then turned over and a sheet of glued paper is placed over them all, after which the tape can be removed. The prepared solid mahogany table is then veneered with mahogany - twice on the under side, horizontally and vertically, and then once on the top side. The prepared marquetry and burr walnut sheet is then placed on top and the whole table top is placed into a hot press, which glues the sheet to the top. The backing paper can then be sanded off. The table top is then veneered 4 times to prevent the top from bowing or warping. Once the assembly is complete, the table is French polished by hand using natural products, resulting in a stunning bespoke masterpiece of marquetry.

12ft Bespoke Handmade Burr Walnut Marquetry Dining Table & 12 Chairs

12ft Bespoke Handmade Burr Walnut Marquetry Dining Table & 12 Chairs

This bespoke handmade large dining table measures 360 cm (approximately 12 feet) when fully extended. Crafted in the style of a victorian dining table, it features the most superb marquetry and can comfortably accommodate up to twelve people making it suitable not only for dining but equally for use in a boardroom or conference/meeting room. Crafted in top quality burr walnut, which is known to be a beautifully figured timber very popular with furniture makers across the ages, this large dining table also features a plethora of intricate inlaid marquetry designs depicting swags, urns and ribbons. All of the marquetry is handmade and inset. Made from wood veneers of various shades, this large dining table has been expertly French polished by hand to emphasis out the wood grains and marquetry to best effect. The table features a special winding mechanism which is used to enable the fitting of up to three extension leaves of 60 cm (2 feet) each. These can be added or removed as required to suit the occasion. This lovely large dining table has four wonderfully carved legs that also feature marquetry and that terminate in brass cap castors. A set of 12 matching chairs, as shown in the photographs, is supplied with this table. There are ten dining chairs, each measuring 105 cm high x 48 cm wide x 46 cm deep. The two armchairs each measure 105 high x 56 cm wide and 53 cm deep. The set of twelve burr walnut and inlaid chairs match the table beautifully. They are made from solid walnut with upholstered drop in seat pads which can be removed so that the cane seats below can be used in warmer weather, and for cleaning. Condition This large dining table and the set of chairs is brand new and therefore in pristine condition. The Making of a Marquetry Masterpiece Please take a few moments to view the video we have made about how this large dining table was made by our third generation craftsmen in Italy. We are able to build a similar table for you with your own specification marquetry decoration, at extra cost. Will it fit? This is a very large dining table so be careful to measure the space where you would like it to go. When fully extended using all three of the leaves, this large dining table has a height of 80 cm (2 feet, 7 inches) and a depth of 130 cm (4 feet, 3 inches) and a length of 360 cm (11 feet, 10 inches). When closed (the leaves are not being used) the height and depth are the same, but the length is reduced to 180 cm (5 feet, 11 inches). As you can see, even in its reduced format, this is still a large dining table. About Burr Walnut Burr walnut has been used by furniture makers for centuries due to its wonderful swirling figure which adds true glamour to the pieces it is used for. Most walnut wood displays the swirling figure when it is cut and polished, particularly when it is cut from where the trunk of the tree meets the roots. However, ‘true’ burr walnut comes from a rare growth pattern of a walnut tree where hundreds of tiny branches have started to grow. This formation is unusual and rare, so burr walnut usually refers to the more ordinary swirling figures found in more normal growth.

The superb set of ten English made Regency style dining chairs have been masterfully crafted in beautiful solid mahogany throughout, and the finish and attention to detail on display are breathtaking.
